Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Saxophone, Trumpet.ABOUT
Ive played trumpet /flugelhorn all my life. Was music major but earner medical degrees. Still played, studio as guitarist, fretless bassist, horn solos. I’m a composer. I’m the solo/principal trumpet in our local orchestra but Im a Jazz stylist. Good theory education. I started age 13 with Jamey Aebersold who influenced my horn and guitars work to this day. I play as guest Jazz horn soloist when In Ukraine where Im returning soon for about a month. I’m looking for twitching. 1. Horns snd rhythm section to build a Jazz group. Quartet or larger. 2. Ive worked as lead guitarist for working bands. Sitting in with various but like join or form all original rock/jazz style or will learn covers. I played 20 years in my own original rock band that had huge following but we had day careers. I’m retired now. I need to play!
