I want to thank you for sending me Piers new CD Stolen Moments. You should know that I receive a lot of music to listen too and I have to say that I really enjoyed the guitar playing, tune selections, band personnel and arrangements. This is a first class production all the way. I¹d love to help spread the word about Piers music and talent. --Press & Promotions

As Pianist Chuk Fowler puts it, I had the great good fortune to be born and raised in Haaarlem, by which he means, 119th Street during the end of the Harlem Renaissance. His early influences include Nat King Cole, Hampton Hawes, and Miles Davis and after studying with Sir Roland Hanna and Sonny Stitt's father, Edward Boatner, he has gone on to play with Kenny Durham, Hank Mobley, Billy Higgins and Harry & Sweet Edison.
Jim Hankins, upright Bass, comes from Detroit, MI, where he grew up in a jazz musician-rich neighborhood that was home to icons such as Barry Harris, Charles McPherson, Donald Byrd and Kenny Burrell. Jim has worked with jazz icons such as Sonny Stitt, Lou Rawls, Wes Montgomery, Donald Byrd and Betty Carter.
