ABOUT

I'm looking for either of these situations:

1) Jazz duo/trio/quartet, playing standard songs and maybe some originals, of which I have several

2) A working corporate/party band. I can play any style, and I can learn songs fast.

I'm a versatile musician whose focus is jazz guitar.
I can read very well, I have a good ears, and play tastefully. I also play blues, and various styles of rock. I'm a skilled writer and arranger, and just recently completed a master certificate in Arranging from Berklee College of Music.
