ABOUT
I'm an experienced band leader, but I don't mind just hanging out in the back, shaking the tambourine either. I have fun no matter what position I'm in. And when it comes to playing, I always leave my ego at the door. I love perfecting music and getting it just right as long as we're having fun.
All my old band mates have moved away...I get to play every now and then, but I really like to keep it up by playing live or record with new people who know how to improvise, who have a great ear, who love to create, and most importantly...like to have fun.
