MATT DRISCOLL: EVEN CONTRA >>>Rhetoric pic 11:6

Tonight at Jazzbones, Tacoma based jazz musician Cliff Colon will celebrate the release of a new CD-a CD that's not your average disc. Made up of the music from the video game Contra, Colon's ContraBand (get it?) is something for jazz purists and aging video game nerds alike.

I know this for a fact because Colon sent me an advance copy of the record. I fit into one of the above categories. I'll let you guess which one.

Anyway, this week I caught up with Colon to get his take on his new record, as well as his CD release show coming up at Jazzbones tonight.
