Dan Nettles
Dan Says:
If you feel like buying me a present, my 29th birthday will be on January 3rd. I went, and actually graduated from Berklee College of Music in 1996. For about 11 years now I've been making my living through my music… playing and teaching. This is my third year teaching at Gainesville College and my first year working with the Cedar Shoals Jazz Band. One current music project is Look Ka Py-Py… we play the music of the Meters and then some. Of course my own material is important to me, and it will be coming together in a new project called Kenosha Kid sometime this fall.
