Influences and inspiration
My saxophone sets are inspired by the smooth jazz of Grover Washington Jr., the swing of Duke Ellington, and the soulful grooves of Stevie Wonder and Bill Withers. I also draw from the melodic sax playing of David Sanborn, Kirk Whalum, and Gerald Albright, and the way Maceo Parker brings funk to the horn.
