SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist - Soprano, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Saxophone, Keyboard, Upright bass.ABOUT
Looking to play with jazz combo featuring Latin, Brazilian, and/or standard Jazz, Vocalist would be nice. I have a library of original compositions that span rock, pop, Latin, jazz genres, I can read, and sing (bari-tenor range). Played in bands in NYC, and fronted my own.
Studying with guitarist Jim Wilson.
Released an original tune--The Platform. https://peardewshane.hearnow.com.
