I am currently a free lance sax player looking for paying gigs. I am very comfortable playing Rock, Jazz, Blues, R&B, Reggae, Neo-Soul and Smooth Jazz.
I have on occasion done session work at Tree Sound Studios and various other smaller studios. These session have required me to play in a horn section or to individually lay down multiple tracks using different horns. I am comfortable reading charts as well as proving a solo for your song.
I have and continue to perform as a solo artist using backing tracks for restaurants, weddings, and other private affairs. I have performed with spoken word artist as well a numerous acoustic artists.
I have a wealth of experience performing at coporate affairs, weddings, cocktail hours, wine tastings as well as family reunions. I have have performed on both the large and small stage with both national and local acts.
If needed, as a Band Leader I can provide a back up band for any performer in any genre of music or performance. The configuration is entirely up to you. From a single instrument to a seven piece band the choice is yours. In addition I have and continue to work closely with event and wedding planners.
