In this episode, I interview my friend and bandmate, Cedric Mayfield.

Ced is a reed instrumentalist, a master of the clarinet, alto sax, tenor sax, soprano sax, and flute. He got his start in the Air Force Band and then moved to New London CT to be in the Coast Guard Band.

In addition to getting to play with him with the Franklin Brothers Band, I had the pleasure to record an album for him and his band, Epitome.

He's got a great story, and the music.. well... it speaks for itself!
