A great little profile of Vincent and Something Else! was published by Jersey Jazz following the band’s performances at Smoke Jazz and Syracuse Jazz Festival. See below for a clip from the show at Smoke!
“I decided to create a band that was a byproduct of what I grew up with and enjoyed,” Herring explained. “It’s kind of a soul jazz review. It’s songs from composers that I grew up with, like Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Turrentine, and George Benson. It’s music that feels great, and all of the musicians in the band are in tune with it. It’s refreshing because it’s a sound that’s timeless but still kind of needed. It’s the best musicians playing great music and enjoying it thoroughly, which becomes infectious.”
