Old Star King is an all-original music ensemble that plays everything from straight ahead jazz and latin to through-composed pieces.
We have recorded 3 full length albums plus a few singles: Trio o' Four, Dynamic Equilibrium, Silent Yellow god and a few live-to-tape recordings done at UC Riverside under the album title Live @ UCR.
Each C.D. contains between 8 and 12 pieces of music, and all are available for purchase. The music is all original and is written, produced, and copyrighted by Robert Winokur.
Old Star King is for hire as a live original group in the Inland Empire, Riverside and Los Angeles areas (we've even played the high desert). For "standards" gigs we travel under the name Trio O' Four. Contact @ myspace.com/trioofour.
Hi! Actually we're coming down in August and you won't believe that Tony and Danny set up a gig for Roundeye to play at Friar Tuck's on the 15th! I am nervous! I haven't played that stuff in a long, long time! lol The kids are great, and yours? Are you still affiliated with Hi-Line in any way? Just wondering, ok. . . see you soon! Call me!
I am so glad you got in touch with me! The music sounds awesome and I hope you'll come up here to visit soon! There isn't much of a scene out here on the coast, but it is beautiful!
The playing is going well. I recently acquired a Music Man Stingray and I couldn't be happier with it. Overall, my musicianship seems to be improving, or maybe its just a temporary phase. Anyway, hopefully we can meet up for a lesson sometime soon. And speaking of that, I recommended you to this child who was looking to find a bass instructor.
It has been a long time hasn't it. Hope all is well with you, all has been really busy on this side. I heard your music. Sounds good! Still sounds like you to me and that is cool...
