SEEKING

ABOUT

Funky, Bluesy, loving contemporary R&B.

Spent many years playing jazz but I'm at my happiest in the groove.

Flexible, versatile, friendly, enthusiastic, upbeat.

Good kit, transport and experience.

Currently playing and contributing original material to a new band - The Last Word - and enjoying that.

Always interested in quality musicians.

Always up for exploring musical territory - if it works, it works, if it doesn't, nobody died :)
