This is a one-man band that is exclusively devoted to celebrating the B-3 Organ sound with primary emphasis on Gospel and Jazz genres. The art of solo organ that was popular in the 50's, 60's and 70's, has largely been lost and I am trying to re-introduce the art and the sound of this great instrument. Practically every church that sings Gospel music has a Hammond organ and I learned to play the organ in many of those churches while growing up in New York City.
