Big News! Chuck is joining Fourplay!

I am VERY proud to announce that a few weeks ago I received a call from some of my favorite musicians in the world: Bob James, Harvey Mason, and Nathan East who invited me to join the band Fourplay. As they were telling me on the conference call that I could take my time to think it over, I interrupted them to say "YES"!

Of course I want to mention that I will be taking over the guitar chair from one of my all-time favorite players, the great Larry Carlton, who has decided to focus more on his own projects for now. And as if those shoes alone weren't big enough to fill, he was of course preceded in the band by another of my favorite guitarists - Lee Ritenour.... whew! Wish me luck.

My first show with the band is scheduled for April 18th at The Seabreeze Jazz Festival in Destin Florida. After that we will head in to the studio to start work on the new CD!!!!

Further updates will be on my and Fourplay's websites as well as Facebook and MySpace.
I am of course honored and thrilled to be part of one of my favorite groups and look forward to creating some great music with some of the planet's finest musicians. YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!
