ABOUT

Ulysses Returns is an ambient wash of sound from which any number of styles might emerge: Prog, Blues, Rock, World, Jazz. I won't be pinned down. I've been on a long journey....what will I find now that I've returned?

I'm looking for a group of players comfortable with varying music styles and a willingness to improvise. Vocals are not out of the question but they will likely not be the focus of the music...unless something cool emerges. I'm very open to augmenting my ideas with yours. Finding gigs will not be a problem, I have a booking agent on standby based on a previous live performance. Is it jazz, rock, prog, ambient--I don't know and the audiences don't seem to care. The response with pickup players has been as visceral as positive.
