Current Performances
Dear Friends and Fans,
At this time I'm not playing very many public performances, but rather, a number of private engagements. If you're interested in hosting a fun and exciting jazz event at your home or a designated venue, please consider including me ("The Jazzmom") and maybe some of my "guys"! And, let's all resolve to resurrect a REAL jazz club in Anchorage, so we can once again listen to, and celebrate a true American art form.

Friday, January 9th, 2026 - O’Malley’s on the Green at the Anchorage Golf Course, 3651 O’Malley Rd. 6:30-9:30pm. No cover charge.
Jazzmom & Co. (Dirk Westfall - bass, Pat Owens - trumpet/flugelhorn, Cameron Cartland - drums) will be cranking out the jazz tunes in celebration of a new year. O’Malley’s on the Green has amazing views of Anchorage, a full bar and a fabulous menu for dining. Special guest vocalist Mark Jacobsen will blow you away.
Saturday, February 21st, 2025 - Humpy’s Alehouse, 610 W. 6th Ave 8:30pm-midnight
Jazzmom joins forces with a 10 piece horn band called “KonneXion” for some high energy tunes. Think Tower of Power, Earth Wind and Fire, Steely Dan, Pb Underground, Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns, Brian Culbertson and more. You don’t want to miss this band.
