I had the opportunity to play a showcase of songs from new musicals by women from around the country, presented by Prospect Theater Company and hosted by Amanda Green. The TimesCenter is absolutely beautiful!

Collaborating with Pharoahe Monch for Ecstatic Music Festival was a night I'll never forget. I hope we get to do it again!
Here's a peek at the drum set up:

It was a pleasure to arrange 8 tunes for Maryland's own Bond St. District for the PitchBlak Playlist series. I had no shame in telling a room of New Yorkers that Maryland is the greatest state in the country!
Looking forward to sharing some videos from this special night. Everyone worked their butts off to deliver an unforgettable night of music!
On Monday, PitchBlak had our first rehearsal for our upcoming Ecstatic Music Festival concert with Pharoahe Monch. In additional to our usual instrumentation, we are performing with a string quartet and vocalist. This is a concert not to be missed! Grab tickets here. I swear I'm looking at the metronome app and not Twitter in this picture.
My parents and grandparents stayed out until 2am to hear my band play in my hometown Friday night. What an inspiration!
With PitchBlak Brass Band. Live at Tropicalia, Washington, DC, 11/20/15 #ripbabygirl www.ashleybaier.com www.pitchblakbrassband.com
