ABOUT

I've just moved to Melbourne after living in Sydney for 16 years and i'm looking to play music in Melbourne. Trumpet is my first instrument and I also play Electric Bass and Percussion (Congas, Bongos etc). I've been fortunate to be involved with various styles of music; Trad Jazz, Latin, Classical, Musicals, Big Band, Roots, Funk/Soul, Bebop, Pop, Hip Hop, Mariachi, Reggae, Ska, Electronic, Drum n Bass. I've toured Nationally and Internationally, I write and arrange and also have promoted events/tours for original bands i've been involved with. I am comfortable as a recording/session player and also happy to be a band member for projects that I can contribute creatively to.
