Andrew Friedrich and Richard Mikel return to Austin to make a record with Daniel Dufour, featuring Friedrich’s original compositions. Catch the live performance of this material for one night only in Austin.

Andrew Friedrich began working as a professional musician in Boston in 2006. Eager to deepen his studies on guitar and gain more performing opportunities, Andrew moved to Austin, Texas where he quickly became an in-demand sideman for many of Austin’s top soloists and bandleaders, performing up to 200 dates a year. Now based in Denver, Andrew runs a private studio training some of Colorado’s best young guitarists, in addition to his work as a performer. In June of 2021, Andrew returned to Austin to record his debut album, “Levity” featuring original compositions.

For over 20 years, Richard Mikel has been in pursuit of a melodic and supportive existence as a bassist. Focusing mainly on jazz and classical genres as an upright bassist, his early years were spent exploring a variety of styles on the electric bass. Shortly after graduating from the University of Northern Colorado, Richard was a finalist in the 2011 International Society of Bassist Jazz Competition held in San Francisco. Spending the next few years 'in-demand' while living in Austin, Texas, Richard gained experience performing nightly, building strong friendships with many of the best musicians in Texas. Since moving to New York in 2017, Richard continues to grow as a musician thanks in part to being surrounded by and learning from musical heroes like Ben Street and Edward Perez.

Daniel Dufour, raised in Willis, Texas, is a freelance percussionist whose influences cover many genres of music. After receiving a Bachelor’s Degree in Percussion Performance at Sam Houston State University, Daniel moved to Austin, Texas where he received his Master’s Degree in Jazz Studies at The University of Texas at Austin. While living in Austin, Daniel has had the opportunity to play with many great musicians including Pete Rodriquez, Gabriel Santiago, Lynn Seaton, Mitch Watkins, Andre Hayward, Ephraim Owens, Elias Haslanger, Red Young, Kevin Lovejoy, Woody Witt, Joe LoCascio, Rotem Sivan, Luis Perdomo, Roberto Quintero, Kirk Covington, Aubrey Logan, Vincent Gardner, and Randy Brecker.Daniel has been a part of many festivals in the greater South East region of Texas. Such appearances included The Corpus Christi Jazz Festival, the Jazz'S Alive Festival in San Antonio, the SHSU Bill Watrous Jazz Festival, and the Temple College Jazz Festival.
