Eric Devine said, “I’m back from an amazing weekend filming Jeff & Joel’s House Party. You would think that I would be tired after 3 days of filming but I just can’t wait to get started editing. There were so many fabulous moments this year. I owe a great thanks to Jeff and Joel for allowing me to be part of the family and putting on such a great event. I have some memory cards to sort now and hope to soon share some highlights.”

When Jeff & Joel’s House Party announced that Paris Washboard would be joining house party #7 one of the first things I thought about was the possibility of a piano duo featuring Louis and Jeff. And here it is, more than just a passing wish…hope you enjoy this one.

Eric: “I am starting to get approvals to post songs from Jeff & Joel’s House Party #7. This year featured the fabulous Paris Washboard in a Friday night set. In this tune from Friday night Jeff Barnhart and Louis Mazetier team up to school the audience in four handed piano playing. This set also featured social guess trombonist Frank Batchelor. Hope you enjoy this one.. ” http://www.pariswashboard.org/
