Howlin Marty + Musician in New Fairfield, CT

SEEKING

ABOUT

I am looking to meet musicians in CT (particularly close to home) who may be interested in my musical services. I've been playing for just about 30 years and specialize in harmonica (both diatonic and chromatic) and percussion (though not hand drums at the moment) and have played a wide variety of musical genres including blues, classic rock, top 40, jazz, latin and southern rock, in the studio and live, acoustic and electric, for fun and professionally. I've included some examples of the work I've done with some talented singer/songwriter friends of mine. Please give them a listen to (and check out the video I was asked to be a part of) and if you feel inspired, by all means give me a shout.
