I am a seasoned player ( probably a couple thousand shows over my 45 years playing professionally ) from clubs to national touring with a Grammy-nominated reggae band. I love to play all forms of black music from reggae, blues, & world beat to soul, funk, & Motown. I have a mountain of pro gear and a pretty nice lighting rig, although pay must be enough to justify hauling it out. Same with my full Hammond B-3 & two Leslies rig...not for every show, but available. I really enjoy helping a band arrange their songs, vocal harmonies, & repertoire as well as studio production.
