Lily Frost - GTA and beyond, Ontario Canada
|
| freelance trumpeter | 6/1/2003 to Present
|
I worked fairly extensively with Lily (www.lilyfrost.com) in 2003 and much of 2004, and then more recently have begun concentrating on my own music. I was the only horn in the band, often playing shows with just Lily on guitar and vox, and me on trumpet and mellophone substituting backup vox with horns. There were never written out charts; all music was learned and played by ear. I am also featured on the song "Walking in the Sun," on the 2004 release, "Situation."
