A natural on the saxophone, he has released three albums and is currently working on his fourth. He gave me a copy of his newest CD, "Stolen Moments," and two weeks later it is still in my CD player. His music is influenced by Frank Sinatra, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey, Coleman Hawkins, and Stan Getz. Known as San Francisco's "King of Swing," Philip Gordon and the Out of Nowhere Band have been together for six years performing at hundreds of weddings, events, clubs, festivals, as well as corporate and private parties all over the Bay Area. The band is available as a quartet or as a quintet (or more) with vocals. Before your event, Philip will work with you to customize the list of songs you like. For example, during cocktails or dinner, the band will play your favorite jazz tunes in the background. When it is time for dancing, they will turn up the volume and play swing, big band, latin, groove, motown, and rhythm and blues. Making all the necessary announcements, guests will not miss the first dance or cake cutting, or garter toss. You can hear song samples on his website (www.bluematrix.org) or see them perform live at one of his regular appearances in San Francisco. The publisher of Bay Arts and Music Magazine, John Rocker, wrote: "Gordon turns jazz into poetry and his songs into beautiful music…few will be unmoved by his passion and eloquence."
