I have been playing since I was 7. Working on an original band for the last 10 years (www.chafafa.ca). I am primarily a bass player, attended Beklee for 1 year, but also a composer and I composed most of the music for Chafafa. Looking to create a new original music project with a jazz/funk feel, but approachable tunes, coupled with rich chord progressions, different time signatures etc. bill dot zickmantel at dot com
