Kevin Eubanks Jay Leno Show!

NBC confirmed today that Kevin Eubanks is returning as the musical director on the Jay Leno Show!
While Kevin Eubanks’ band will stay on the new Jay Leno show, Leno announcer John Melendez is leaving his post to join the 19 person writing staff for Jay.
The net had been buzzing in recent weeks with people questioning if Eubanks would continue with Leno to the new time slot. Today the Peacock confirms the gig along with a new hire in Liz Plonka as the show’s director.
The Jay Leno show hits NBC September 14.
Can’t wait!

Jay Leno, Kevin Eubanks

Dear Kevin,
I am one of the managers at Houlihan’s restaurant in Philadelphia. Houlihan’s was the 3rd largest donator to the “Save the Music Foundation” last year, and we are currently in this years drive. I know this is a stretch, but you represent everything that this organization is fighting for, which is to get music back in the classroom. We have local bands that have been donating their time playing for the cause. Obviously, I don’t expect you to come back to Philly to play, or for even that matter, to donate money, but if you could think about some kind of “plug” or something to donate for an auction, that would be terrific. VH1 is doing the national fund raising effort, and each Houlihan’s location are donating to them. You represent Philly music and the community! (Go Eagles). If you are interested, or have any ideas, you can email at work at 3131@houlihans.com. If not, that’s OK too. I am a big fan. Thanks for your time.
Sincerely,
Paul Varga Mgr
