ABOUT

I am interested in joining an existing band or forming a group for gigs. I would like to work in a fun, creative and challenging musical situation. I am easy to work with, a good reader, a good listener and I have excellent equipment. I am comfortable playing most genres particularly jazz, rock, R&B, funk and soul. I also have years of experience performing in pit bands for musical productions.
I am a retired music teacher.
I have rehearsal space.
