About Me

I was born in NY, moved to the Bay Area when I was young, and started playing saxophone in the 5th grade. I was fortunate enough to have a great saxophone teacher growing up from the bay, Dann Zinn. I was also very fortunate while I was still in high school to listen to and play with phenomenal bay area musicians who had a great influence on me. A lot of the programs in the bay area helped moved me along including SFJAZZ, Monterey Jazz Festival, and the Brubeck Institute. I'm currently at my last year at Berklee trying to get the most out of it while I can. I know there are a lot of musicians out there who I've lost touch with, so please add or message me to reconnect.I'm selling my CD through CDBABY.com here: http://cdbaby.com/cd/patcarrollquartet.
