ABOUT

I am a proficient saxophone player and vocalist. I can read music and can quickly find vocal harmonies. I am looking for a band that wants to feature a saxophonist and some lead vocals. I can function as an auxiliary keyboardist but not as the main keys. I also have a Roland AE 30 Electronic Wind Instrument that can play synth sounds. I also enjoy playing Blues, Classic Rock, & Pop music (it only lets you select 4 genres).
