SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Trumpet, Saxophone, Piano, Upright bass, Clarinet.ABOUT
I play tenor, baritone and C-melody saxophones and also sing. I am interested in playing '20s, '30s, American Songbook, swing jazz. I have led, fronted and played in jazz bands for 20+ years and have played in country, rock and folk bands for another 20+ years before that.
I currently play in 2 x 5 piece bands and a duo but none of these play very often and I am looking to play much more often. I am happy to rehearse and it is often possible to do this at my home in Highgtae
