SEEKING

ABOUT

I've been playing professionally for the last 40 years in one form or another and have probably done 3500+ shows over that time. My undergraduate degree is in Jazz Studies from the University of North Texas. I'm looking to play with a group of solid, no-nonsense, quality musicians that bring no drama or BS to the endeavor. I have a pro drummer that is in so looking for vocals, bass and keys. I have a day gig so weekend work is all I can commit to do. Would like to do R&B, Blues or Jazz. Am also looking for a music ministry opportunity as I had to leave a 10 yr ministry when I moved to SC.
