SEEKING
Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Drums, Piano, Rhythm Guitar, Saxophone.ABOUT
I prefer to play straight ahead jazz standards, bebop and funk. I read music but I don't site read well and I don't have high note chops. For this reason, although I love big band music, I don't like to play it. I thrive in smaller groups that emphasize melody and extended room for improvisation.
