Sounds Like
An almagamation of all the things I like. Hopefully, I sound like an individual who's trying to improve.
I'm a guitarist living in Philadelphia. I went to Temple University where I studied jazz performance. I'm currently performing, composing, and teaching full time.
Hows it goin man? Still kickin it back in philly? Would love to have a jam and a hang sometime......I should have a gig comin your way if your available...its while from now...my bros wedding ceremony.. Nov 14th..they want guitar....ill call you when i get the email..peace bro
Just listened to your tunes on here and really enjoyed your music. And your solo on Cute is real nice – are you a Hendrix fan? Thought I caught some Jimi moments in there without copping his sound. Real nice.
Alright man, hope to hear you play again sometime soon,
Thanks a lot. You two guys are really great. Seems like there's good jazz in Philadelphia. ''A Pleasant Stumble'' - fascinating tune. Keep the good work!
Thanks so much Tim. Your comments mean a lot. I return the sentiment to your playing as well. I need to make it out to one of your gigs when I get a free moment. Let me know if you ever want to jam some time... perhaps next time Wuest is in town... Take care.
