SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Drums, Trumpet, Keyboard.ABOUT
My experience includes both formal training in classical and jazz as well as informal playing in funk, rock, blues, and jazz groups including the Oregon State University Jazz Ensemble, church worship teams, lead-sheet based jazz combos, quartets, duets, and rhythm sections for choirs and plays. For samples of my solo/improv, listen to the videos of "Transcendental" by e3 (Alto Sax improv) or the recording from the OSU Jazz at the 6:44 mark (Soprano Sax improv).
