ABOUT

I'm looking for similar quality players that aren't depending on income from the project to live on. I work in the music industry and travel extensively. I'd like a band that is great talent and plays occasionally but gets great pay or covers costs and does the odd benefit gig.

I'm really good at arranging old songs with interesting chord voicings to match the project. Good singers and BGVs are a plus.
