SEEKING
Band to Join, Upright bass.ABOUT
I studied jazz guitar back in the mid to late eighties, played in small clubs around town. Studied seriously at that time including attending Vanier and privately with local jazz guitar players. I have more time to return to studying and practicing now, 30 plus years later. Serious about understanding harmony and playing proper jazz solos based on comprehension, not hitting random notes hoping they sound good !
