SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I can adjust my style to fit into many musical scenes - most enjoy the bluesy side of jazz or rock, or funk, but would love to be challenged. Eager to learn more straight-ahead jazz, Latin, and/or Middle Eastern. Interested also in African and Caribbean music, and would enjoy being introduced to it.
I play with a lot of fire and soul.
Looking for relatively straight and sane musicians with stable lives, day jobs, and excellent work habits.
Not interested in just jamming - prefer to be part of a band that improvises within well-rehearsed material. Prefer material that will get people up to dance.
