He has performed with jazz and pop legends such as Bruce Hornsby, Pat Metheny, Bonnie Raitt, Al Jarreau and Flora Purim. Bass Guitar Magazine calls him “an improviser of extraordinary depth.” He’ll perform with the MARS 4-tet band’s acclaimed players: saxophonist Jeff Antoniuk , guitarist Donato Soviero and drummer Frank Russo.
