Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Trumpet, Saxophone, Keyboard, Piano, Trombone, DJ.ABOUT
Saxophones - have all from sop to bari but happy to play most woodwind including flute, clarinet and didg. Also play decent support keys (but I'm not Chick Corea!) and steady bass - but again Jaco is a long way off yet! Have gigged on sax, keys and bass in a variety of function, covers and originals bands from jazz fusion, funk to standard soul and blues, Punk-ska original material as well as rock. Mod and some ambient and electronica bands. Have also done some composing and performing original material in a range of set ups and worked with a number of brass sections. Happy to play from dots if needed but sight reading rusty, so time to pick through dots is a help. Open to most ideas and styles. Pretty lively on stage and good on backing vox and harmonies. Have all of my own kit as needed.
