Saxophone Semi-Pro
Piano/Keyboards Beginner
I've been playing sax for about 25 years.I love a wide range of music, but especially, Ska, Reggae, Hip-Hop and Punk.
I have some classical training as well as experience playing in and touring with Punk/Reggae/Rock and Jazz bands.

My reading and theory are getting pretty rusty, but my tone is good I'm pretty good at improvising.

I am fairly content musically but I'm always open to jamming if you have something you think I might be interested in.

Also, I'm the guy that built this site.
