John Medeski will perform with the Campbell Brothers in Italy next month. The piano player, who has both performed with and produced the Campbell Brothers, will join the group in Milan from 12/12-13. When I sit in with people in the studio—-and I have been involved with accompanying people since I started playing when I was 5—-I sit back, Medeski says in a recent site interview. Im not interested in showing off. For instance, working with the Campbell Brothers is more about weeding through material and helping with their arrangements. On November 2 Medeski will also perform with Kid Koala at New York, NYs Merkin Concert Hall.
