ABOUT

I am very experienced at my instrument and I am able to reflect this experience in a wide variety of styles although I focus mainly on progressive types of music. I pay very tentative attention to accuracy, tonality and the texture of my sound. I have the ability to play fast, however I would rather sacrifice blinding speed for more expressive playing. I sit well with alternative time signatures and progressive styles of playing with out loosing the funk or soul of the piece.
