The Social Hang For Jazz Artists

Hey all! I have recently joined a new band with several established stars in the Smooth Jazz field.
Will Clark is the primary organizer, and sort of the ringleader. He is a fine Keyboardist and composer, and has worked with lots of famous folks. I am honored to have been chosen by him.

Jimmy Rodriguez is on guitar. Jim and I played together in a short-lived, but hot cover band called The Funk Junkies. He has also got a list of credits as long as Shaq's arm. He is the one who brought me into this project.

Bert Baker is on drums. Bert is a very high profile drummer, who has been in a lot of projects in LA. Super nice guy too!

Eric Patterson is on Saxophone. He has amazing tone. I don't know much of his background, but he plays his a** off, and has a great ear for melodies.

Lior (sp) is on Trumpet, and aux keys. Another really cool dood. I don't know his last name, but I know he's a big star in Israel!

Oh....and then, there's me. The Funkee1 himself, on bass. I try to keep up with those other big dawgs as best I can. This supergroup does not have a name yet......but stay tuned. A CD and tour are in the works.

My Two Jazz Teachers Just Joined The Network!

Hello JMS Members,

I'm so excited today. Two of my most influential jazz musical mentors, Robert "Doc" Morgan and Marvin "Prof" Sparks has joined the network. I'm so proud to have had both of these gentlemen as major influences in my musical, personal, and business development. I'm just showing off. Excuse me for being excited.

Peace & Keep Swinging!

I don't know about you cats, but my new music budget has evaporated over the years. About a year ago, I got turned onto the public library as a source for "new to me" music. The beauty of it for me was that there was a searchable collection of jazz…
