I can play many styles, But the ones I want to play are: Jazz, funk, blues, R & B, Rock, Zydeco. I have excellent equipment, reliable transportation, can lay down a groove or solo and am easy to work with. Love to jam & like to fuse other styles with each other. Can do some background vocals. Am mature and professional in manner.
Primarily looking for a fun original or some covers situation with experienced players that might be gigging.
I just got out of an electric progressive jazz rock setting, which was quite challenging as well as a tribute band. Off and on over the years in real book jazz bands. Have done several stints in local well known groups in various styles.
