Spring Is Before Us - Brian Clancy 

12 years later. My buddy ended up going to UNT and being in the one o’clock lab band. You were always an inspiration to him and I. Thank you for your music

8 years later and this still brings chills

Thanks for the kind words! I am playing on an older metal (Florida) Otto Link 5* with 3H Rico Jazz Select unfiled - Selmer Mark VI.

BC is a great young jazz tenor sax player. His solo on "Yesterdays" with the One O'Clock Lab Band ranks right up there among the best tenor solos I have ever heard in many years listening to the very best tenor artists. This particular composition is pure class. It has a deeply embedded groove that just sails along and takes you with it. It resolves beautifully. Great work Brian, we look forward to more great stuff from you in the years to come.

I freakin' love this song!!! I Love the freakin' drummer ! I love the freakin' sax player! I love freakin' piano player and I freakin' love the freakin' bass player!

Marvellous!Mr. Clancy blows like hell!Wonderful!

Thank you,mr. Clancy...

There is a very good reason this man plays lead tenor in the 1 o'clock lab band at North Texas... Fantastic playing, my friend.

YES! Great Brian, you're great!

I stumbled onto Brian a couple Sunday's ago at the Lighthhouse in Hermosa. I'm thinking "This guy doesn't look much like a hip jazz cat." No dark glasses? No chin hair? Then he puts his horn to his lips and out comes Lester Young! So, looks can be deceiving. Great to see a young guy with real talent embracing this genre of music. Good luck Brian.

Wonderfuuuuuuuul...beautifuuuuuuuuuuul sound

Really,all of these guys...pure fear!!!

WHOOOOAAAAHHHH GUUUYS!!!

Hello Brian, In your other Video (The One O'Clock Lab Band Plays Yesterdays). You play with the same expression of Michel Bracker. Congratulations! Beautiful sound, expression. You used a mouthpiece Vanodren V16. Which model? Number? What reed? Thank you I am Teacher Lander-Brazil.

Beautiful sound and interpretation. What is your setup please mouthpiece, lingature? What is the used sasofone? Congratulations and I wish you much success.

Hey Mr. Clancy, I would love it if you could post the head to this tune somewhere with chords, it's an awesome chart, I absolutely love it and would like to play it

Nice dark tenor sound! Which tenor players are you inspired by?

5*? wow that's suprising! without any refacing job?

Thanks for responding. I want to tell you about my plans I want to open up a jazz club in the North Dallas area hopefully close enough to UNT. I want to hold Jam sections which I will be posting on Facebook from my restaurant my jazz club it's going to be called Lauren after my daughter. And I'm going to set up the stage to have it acoustic Lee the best I can. And I'm going to have a mixture behind the stage so the people dining won't know I'm going to record every night and post on Facebook it's my goal to make their greatest jazz club ever I've already got the food down. I want to be a musician I'm even trying to get a scholarship for 2019 on classical clarinet. I want to develop contacts at UNT and create my own record label where I record everything live with an audience. You have a phenomenal sound but it's better when you are playing with the group it excels they give you energy and desire an emotion. I know it's easier to do it the studio way that's why we did it at Lamont. Also have You released an album yet? And if you have what is it I definitely want to buy it

You play just fantastic. But I notice that you have a very unconventional fingering technique (by not really touching the pearl buttons). It works for you, but is this by accident?

This way of recording individuals and separate rooms. Is what's wrong with all of today's music. You need to be in the same room and working off of each other's energy to perform your best. You're giving the people with the switches in the booth more control of your sound then The musicians. If you don't believe me . check out every live one Lab band performance and then listen to the ones they were done in the studio thank about it. The live performances are much better and more exciting and the sound quality is also better

Fat for a 5*
