About Me

Young musician with a passion for jazz.

I'm a young teen from NJ, and i have a true love for jazz. I mainly play tenor sax, which I have played for many years, but I also play electric bass, guitar, harmonica, hand percussion, and I'm currently learning clarinet and piano. I am starting to compose my own stuff and have already started arranging standards and classical pieces. My biggest influence for my music is the great Sonny Rollins. I am also inspired by Duke Ellington, Chick Corea, Miles Davis, Stan Getz, Avishai Cohen, Victor Wooten, Frank Wess, Benny Goodman, Joe Pass, Django Reinhardt, Benny Golson, and a few others. I may be young, but jazz is to me like an instrument is to a musician.
