ABOUT
I've been playing sax since I was 10. I own and play alto, tenor and bari. I am a founding member of Digg in Denver and played with them for 3 years. Work travel was the primary factor in my departure from that great band. I no longer travel for work and I am looking to play in a band in the Boulder/Arvada West/Golden area who is out to have a good time and play out, locally. I'm enjoy playing covers but I prefer to play original music. I am creative and enjoy the process of creating original music. I can go on tour occasionally, but I have a career in aerospace and 2 kids and a Fiance that I must be present for.
