Kimmie C + Band in Flat Rock, NC

SEEKING

ABOUT

Recently formed jazz group with seasoned vocalist, pianist, bass player, jazz guitarist and drummer looking to add an experienced horn or sax player.  Should be comfortable soloing and comping/playing backgrounds over standards, bebop and bossas.  We are not just a vocalist's band and all musicians in the group will be featured during our sets.  Our group practices every other Saturday afternoon in Asheville.  We would appreciate it if you have audio clips of your playing available to share with us. We have a set list.

I was vocalist for 4 years with Swing City Big Band. And very experienced with The Great American Song Book. I was with Nite Shift ( Featured in attached videos and some tracks) for 5 years.

I was in an acoustic band before I moved down to NC.

I was honored to be a student of the award winning and world famous New York Voices Jazz Camp in 2015.
I am very familiar with and have performed hundreds of standards.
I am very low key and not a fan of drama.
