SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I have been playing for almost 30 years. Started playing professionally at the age of 11 with the Bremerton Symphony Orchestra in Bremerton Washington. I have played everything from Mozart to Metallica, and everything in between. I have toured with the likes of Quincy Jones & the All Seattle High School Big Band (jazz), Mel Torme (jazz), Jumpin' Jimes (swing, rock-a-billy), recently playing around Arizona with the Bullseye Band (country), James Kole (Roots/Americana), and most recently Rhythm Edition (dance/variety). I am looking for something that is fairly steady. Please contact me at mrlakeband dot com or (602) 757-7978.
