Jazz guitarist looking for upright and drums

Ridgewood NY

Description

I'm a jazz guitarist looking for an upright player (you don't have to play upright, let alone drag it around the city for every session) and drums for gigs. I have connections to get good and bad gigs (if we just want to get out and play), but what I'm really looking for is people who want to get together and play regularly regardless of whether or not there's a gig. I haven't done much playing with other humans because of the pandemic so my #1 priority is just getting together once a week to play. Biggest influences are Grant Green, Joe Pass, Scofield, Stern, etc. There's that list of "50 Jazz Standards You Must Know!" online somewhere, and they're great tunes but there are other great tunes I'd like to play too. I'd rather shell out the money for a rehearsal space than go to a session in a bar and spend just as much on booze and play one song. Any of you guys wanna get together and run some tunes?
