Band to Join, Trumpet.

ABOUT

Born Again Christian - Performing since the age of five years old in church. Sing in the Baritone Range; however, can sing Bass and into the tenor range. Love "Blue-eyed Soul." Sang in the Georgia Southern Jazz Combo with three women (can Scat Sing). Performing on the trumpet for about 50 years. Played Lead and Split Lead in the Georgia Southern University Jazz Ensemble as well as The Eee Kuu Dap Band. Played Lead in numerous Musicals post college. I LOVE FUNK; SOUL; BLUES and Tower of Power/Chicago type tunes (Timeless tunes)

I am open to possibilities. 4 octave range on trumpet. Love the Latin Music like you here on Spaghetti Westerns; old school funk & soul; the Christian Genre is wide open with very little variety. I will not be a part of something that isn't done with excellence.
