Solid technical pianist, keyboardist, singer…classically trained, so I read music and know the theory…but I mostly play by ear. I want to hone my skills in lifting, arranging and performing live and recorded music of all types. Covers (especially post-1979) are fine; but I would be thrilled to work on original music with funk, jazz, soul, folk, ska, and world music influences.

Yamaha CK 61 that lets me play piano, electric piano and organ sounds. But happy to rent a weighted keyboard for gigs or to explore synthesizers if needed.
