First band I was in didn't have a name. There were four of us until we went through a "Yoko Ono" period. I'm sure I don't need to explain what that was. We were in high school and we did a lot of Beatles covers and towards the end we tried some originals. I played bass and keyboards and sang.
Since then I've been in a lot of different jazz groups. I was also in my university jazz ensemble, playing piano. I've tried to start a few different things over the years, but without realizing it, was heading towards a dead end everytime I tried to play the standard jazz rep. (always had shoes to fill).
I finally feel I have something to offer. I now have a band that's working on all my original stuff. It's called Arkana and we're working towards our first recording.
I'm also in a crazy klezmer/rock band called Klezfactor, which I've been doing for a couple of years and we have one album out.
