About Me
Well, here is the short version. I am a musician who lives in Las Vegas, NV currently. I am originally from Indiana, but move here about 8 years ago. I am a saxophone player mainly, but also perform on flute and clarinet and some keys from time to time. I have been fortunate to perform with some very talented people and feel very grateful for the opportunities presented to me! Some of the folks I have played with include Frankie Valli, Terry Fator, Michael Feinstein, Tears for Fears, Michael Buble,The Temptations, Michael Cavanaugh,Ben Vereen, Sheena Easton, Marvin Hamlisch, Martin Nievera, and Martha Reeves to name a few. Currently, I just finished a one and a half year run with Toni Braxton. I will be opening the Broadway musical ’Jersey Boys’ here in Las Vegas at the Palazzo hotel. Aside from playing with featured performers, I have played many production shows here in LV such as ’Hairspray’, ’Legends in Concert’, ’The Rat Pack is Back’, and several others. When I can, I also enjoy playing music with local artists like ’Vision Band’, ’Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns’, ’The Lon Bronson All Stars’, ’The MVPs’, ’The LA Allstars’, ’Latin Breeze’, .... you get the point. There are so many talented people in this city that make this town a vast and spectacular musical landscape, and I would need mucho space to account for all of them. If you are ever in the area, for sure go check these people out. Many of them have accounts and are in my friends spots below, so check em out! Support people... support!!!! Essentially -- I play as much as I can, with as many people as possible. Often times to the wee hours! I can truly say it’s a love thing!
If I tried to list my influences, it would get long and tedious, so I put some pics of some of them in my pics file.
Feel free to drop me an email and when you are done on your computer, go out and see live music. It will make you feel good --- I promise.
So I hope that sums it up... formal resume upon request.... ha ha!
Peace and good music,
Eric
