Doug Hewitt Music

The Doug Hewitt Group, Terry Rousso & Glen Stegner and Mat Herschler will perform.

The Doug Hewitt Group performs uniquely original rock & jazz drawing from many years of song writing plus covers ranging from John Coltrane to the Beatles. Last year Doug released "Picasso Tomato" his 6th album of all original music which is the group's main source of material. The band is Doug Hewitt on guitar and vocals, John Crankshaw on drums, Mitch Pine on piano, Robby Roiter on bass, Amy Bateman on violin, plus they welcome their newest member Danielle Lorenzo on vocals. The Doug Hewitt Group performs three types of shows: jazz, rock and originals which fuse those genres.

Mat Herschler has been song writing since he was a kid. In his vagabond younger years he was introduced to and often performed with regional acts around the country and in Europe. Most recent credits include the title track of John Cruz' new album "One of these Days." Much experience as a side man, Mat now emerges as a solo performer. His unique piano stylings steeped in gospel, blues and R and B well support a richly expressive voice. His lyrics take on the tough subjects of the day. Drugs, madness, alienation, injustice, love, war and peace. Songs for a troubled World.

Terry Rousso and Glen Stegner are a violin and piano duo who have been playing jazz and other improvisational styles together for many years. Terry has extensive classical training while Glen studied jazz with Kenny Baron. In addition to piano Glen often utilizes synthesizers to expand their music beyond the organic into the stratospheric. Terry and Glen's performances are often spontaneous creation of improvisational composition.
