Fight the Big Bull (one of Richmond’s favorite jazz ensembles and the brainchild of Matthew White, that bearded musical genius) played a show at Joe’s Pub in New York a few weeks ago.

Before they headed up there, Matthew, along with bandmates Reggie Pace and Cameron Ralston, spent some time speaking with WBGO’s Josh Jackson. When you get a chance, take a listen. Topics that come up include: Richmond Marching Band, RVAJazzfest, Steven Bernstein, and their overall experiences making music in Richmond.

Listen to the interview here.

If you’re interesting in watching their set from the show up in NYC, you can do that here. And because we just love bragging on these guys, FFTB also got featured on Song of the Day the day of the show in New York where Song of the Day writer Patrick Jarenwattananon couldn’t have nicer things to say about our hometown boys.
