Big Tower Fan + Musician in Columbia, MO

ABOUT

Moving to Columbia from Dallas in May/June 2023.

2012-present: Horn section contractor and performer with Rock and Roll Hall of Famers The O'Jays throughout Texas and adjacent states.

Occasional performer with the Dallas Jazz Orchestra and recorded with them on their most recent studio recording 40 Years of American Grace.

Lead/split-lead trumpet with two other Dallas-area big bands, the Texins Jazz Band and Crosswinds Jazz Ensemble.

Leader of Tower of Power tribute band Urban Renewal. Would definitely like to get something like this going again once I get to CoMo. One of the photos here is our horn section performing with Little Feat in Dallas playing some of those great charts from the Waiting for Columbus album that they originally recorded with the Tower of Power horns.
