Tom's Place is happy to play host to Nate Brenner and Ben Goldberg's Meditations project, and a solo performance by New York-based bassist Carmen Quill.

Since April 2023, Nate and Ben have gathered nearly every week to record duets. Ben says "The music has encompassed us in its power to enlighten, guide, and heal. So we named the project Brenner/Goldberg Meditations. There are many volumes in the archive and like Bob Dylan said 'shall be released.'"

Carmen Quill is a double bassist, composer, singer and interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn, NY.  More...
