New band
I’m pleased to report that I will be leading a new band. We’ll be playing fusion jazz, but hopefully on a higher level. I will be the main pianist but another (dare I say, more accomplished) keyboardist will be accompanying me on synths. I hope it will be a very powerful combination of complementary sounds.
I also respect my new bassist, who wants to play on a more advanced level. It’s always good for a jazz band to have a strong bassist. And the drummer is fairly versatile too. I’m actually looking forward to it!
We intend to learn pieces by Dave Grusin and Fourplay, which require precision, coordination and improvisation. We will be meeting up in a couple weeks’ time.
