My mentors taught me "never turn down a gig", and for many many hard years I never did. That brand of tenacity and hardheadedness brought me to this point- a seasoned artist with somewhat of a vocabulary, musically speaking. I can cover most styles convincingly and love bringing something different to the table.
My reading is OK, if you have charts and demo stuff I can nail it like 9000 (an old local colloquialism). You see, when I interpret a piece of music, it becomes a landscape; a geometrical arrangement of spaces of which I learn the architecture and emotional inflection and do my level best to create it for posterity.
My favorite stuff to play is New Orleans march stuff, Caribbean and African rhythms, and whatever else grooves. There's no shame in playing "Boom-bap boom boom bap" for me. The other day a guy asked me to play MORE fills! Yay! My master plan is complete. :D
I can take requests for work at a rate of $50/track (This is a "ballpark" sketch based upon your specific request). Final outcome is not predicted. You'll get a high quality mastered polished and spit shined (don't ask how we do that) track. If you want the session masters, they're $150 for the first master, then $125 each additional master.
