About Me

MyWackoSpace MySpace Slideshow Upload Images Random Backgrounds MySpace Editor Currently holding down a career as a freelance musician around St. Louis. I play with several groups including The Steve Ewing Band, and a regular jazz gig at Lucas Park Grille sunday evenings. I recently returned to school after six years and several tours with my former band Core Project. I have been very lucky to have several different playing situations lately, everything from rock, funk, and R&B, to jazz and hip-hop as well as getting to work with some killin' players, as well as being truly blessed to be able to return to school and study with THE BADDEST musicians around. I try and keep my dates posted on myspace so come out sometime or drop me a line.
