Lead Guitar, Trumpet, Piano.ABOUT
Looking for tasty mature jazz guitarist to join contemporary jazz group. We do tunes by Lee Ritenour, Jeff Lorber, Yellowjackets, Rippingtons, Freddie Hubbard, David Sanborn, a few funky standards as well as jazz arrangements of pop tunes and a number of Latin tunes (Mas Que Nada, Morning, etc.)
We currently have about 20 tunes is our current set list with sax/flute, bass, piano and drums. Looking to be ready to start gigging in early fall.
We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running with no attitude and can read charts, solo, and comp. Looking for a team player who can fit in. We rehearse typically on Wednesday evenings in SW Fort Collins.
If this sounds like you, please drop me a note.
