Originally from Upstate NY, Larry has over 25 years of music experience. Reeves paid his dues on the road playing in production shows, top 40 dance bands, rock, funk and blues groups. However, I always found himself returning to jazz, his first love and passion. It was with this goal in mind that I founded the group Starting Point, a dynamic jazz quintet featuring high-energy performances and reflecting so many of my improvisational influences including: Jaco Pastorius, Stanley Clarke, Ray Brown, and his current mentor, Minneapolis' own Terry Burns
My Band is Statring Point - We are a high-energy 5-piece jazz fusion band which plays modern jazz/fusion covers and a wide variety of original material. Our influences include Weather Report, The Yellowjackets, Pat Metheny, and Chick Corea to name just a few.
The band was originally formed in the Fall of 2002, and has evolved quite a bit into the group which exists today. In the Spring of 2005, we will be recording our first cd, which will consist of entirely original material.
