I'm in a smooth jazz band in Garden Grove/Orange, (rehearsal room
locations). we have a keyboard, bass, congas/timballes (sp), guitar,
drummer. We are looking for a sax (Alto/Saprano), clarinette, etc to
rehearse with us. We will have started with an agent by the end of
the summer and need to get people that would like to do the horn
sections, not to commit to a band, unless that is what your after. We
can get charts for the parts...
