ABOUT

I've played in too many genre's, styles and environments. I love playing with a singer in a jazz lounge setting or even on a pub circuit (with the appropriate repertoire of course). It would be nice to settle into a particular band and focus in a team environment with a view to pursuing a full time capacity doing something I love, making music with like-minded people.
Whether its a modern pop music band or a five piece jazz group (or both), I'm happy to make it work.
So my favourite genre at the moment is funk, disco and rock with a groovy beat to it.
