SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Hey there. I am a saxophone and bass player. I graduated in 2018 from SIUe with a Jazz Saxophone degree. I play all different kinds of music on both instruments. I don't really do Jazz bass; Jazz saxophone is much preferred. I've been playing saxophone since 5th grade and bass seriously since college (2015 ish). I have a lot of experience in jazz, funk, motown, pop, rock, and jam band with saxophone. I also have done Gospel music on saxophone and bass as well. I have a lot of experience with bass in various kinds of ensembles as well, from all different kinds of rock to progressive metal, CCM music and some gospel as well. I'm comfortable on a stage with either instrument and I'm always down to play just about anything.
I recently quit my job to pursue music full time, so I'm pretty open to anything.
I currently perform with Bullseye Womprats on Bari Sax/backing vocals and sometimes bass. I play bass in Pioneer Salesmen, bass at New Hope Church in Glen Carbon/Edwardsville, and am starting to play some with LA Jones and Adrianne Marie and the Groovecutters soon.
