ABOUT

I have been playing on and off since I was about 8 and I am a young at heart, mind, body and soul 50 ,
I am mainly self taught but have studied music.
I understand music theory and can read music but my sight reading is not up to scratch.
I have a great ear and feel for music.
I can improvise and get up and play along to most things.
I'm looking for a committed band to make a living with or musicians to form a upbeat new band
I have a couple of tunes from a jazz guest spot on SoundCloud under Ant Salt, nature boy and Angel eyes.
Also I have my version of ,we three kings on YouTube I think it is under Saltyjazz .
It has a question for my availability for practice ect , I am available 24 7.

EQUIPMENT

Taylor, trumpet, for a hot jazz edge
Blessing artist trumpet with a copper bell for extra zing
Olds special tri tone for a great all rounder
Jupiter 846s with rose brass bell (flugelhorn) I love flugelhorn and I have tried a lot and Jupiter's have a great sound, play in tune (flugels have bad intonation) and I can't afford a fat boy or eclipse..
Loads of mutes , shure sm57 mic ,stand leads, effects pedals, crybaby wawah, carlsbro minimix 8 channel preamp for xlr input and sound control.
Laney 5 channel single speaker amp,
50w kustom amp and a big old school carlsbro monitor.
Plus personal dabbling , electric bass,
Bongos and stand
Lowery pageant organ with genie
Yamaha Electra tone hc2 organ
Yamaha e403 keyboard
Didgeridoo
Blues harp
These are just because I love instruments and the organs play them self's
The bass gets the most use but not the standard I would play on stage.
