\"carswell\"<\/a><\/td>\nBlues Vocalist John Carswell and Drummer, Jud Sherwood. Carswell and Sherwood began working together in 1998 and have been laying down the groove together ever since. It\u2019s Carswell\u2019s incredible blues vocals that sets him apart from those who claim to play the blues.\u00a0<\/span>Carswell loves the good times and he loves to make you smile doing he does best. And he can sing the blues: makes you smile in a heartbeat, or makes you cry so your poor heart just skips a beat. Bass player, Larry Holloway quips: \u201cthat guy\u2019s got more soul than James Brown.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Over the course of his forty-year career, Carswell has played with Blues and R&B legends B.B. King, Aretha Franklin, Tower of Power, and Ray Charles. Residing now in the Northwest he works between Seattle and Bellingham as frequently as the clubs can book him. Locally, he has performed at Resort Semiahmoo, Poppe\u2019s Bistro, Skagit Valley Resort, and for the Jazz Project\u2019s Art of Jazz Series<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Jud Sherwood, on drums, performs regularly throughout the Northwest with his own groups and by carefully assembling players from around the region to play jazz in concert and at clubs. He has performed with Herb Ellis, Bill Perkins, Teddy Edwards, John Stowell, Bert Wilson, and Nancy King. He founded The Jazz Project in February 1997 to increase performance opportunities for Jazz Musicians and to promote the music from a musician\u2019s perspective of community development and education. He has received eight consecutive grants from Washington State Arts Commission.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
