Seeking Sax Player and/or Bassist

Chicago IL

Description

I'm a drummer with over 30 years of playing experience, interested in starting a soul jazz group that ideally would rehearse once a month and eventually play some gigs. We would book a rehearsal studio for a couple of hours and all chip-in. I'm looking for a high level player who perhaps has a 9-5, perhaps a family, and who wants to play with other musicians who are in the same boat. At the moment, I've got an experienced jazz guitar player interested, but I need to round things out with a some other instrumentalists. Some examples of what I'd like to play would be: Les McCann/Eddie Harris, Scofield, Lou Donaldson, Melvin Sparks, Sonny Stitt, Reuben Wilson, Idris Muhammed, etc... If you or someone you know might be interested, kindly reply. Thank you!
