My photo
John Harris
Brighton, United Kingdom
A (part-time) jazz guitarist playing regularly in & around Brighton. My inspirations on guitar include Jim Hall, Grant Green, René Thomas, Joshua Breakstone, Peter Bernstein & Kurt Rosenwinkel. I play with The Roadrunners (soul/swing/funk), Smithville (organ driven hard bop quintet), Lost Organ Unit (classic Hammond Organ grooves) and Studio 9 Orchestra (20-piece modern jazz orchestra).
