(Voir plus bas pour le texte en français)
Seeking to join an existing project, or start a new one with like-minded musicians. Looking to perform locally, for fun and some extra coin when possible (that's always a plus), originals or covers. My listening preference goes to instrumental jazz fusion, but I'm flexible on style and format: From a full band to a more "intimate" acoustic trio or quartet, from jazz standards to "new school" stuff (fusion, jazz/hip hop hybrid, R&B, recurring top 40 paying gig, etc.). The only things I'm definitely not interested in are metal, punk, and the 2-guitar rock band (à la Nickelback).
I can be reached at francois underscore payen, at the internet mail service that starts with a "ya" and ends with a "hoo" and a dot com.

Je souhaiterais me joindre à un projet existant, ou en démarrer un nouveau avec d'autres musiciens partageant mes intérêts. Mon but est de me produire en spectacle localement, principalement pour le plaisir mais aussi pour un revenu d'appoint lorsque possible. Comme auditeur, je préfère le jazz fusion instrumental, mais je suis flexible quant au format et au style que je joue comme bassiste. Ça pourrait prendre la forme d'un band complet ou d'un trio / quartet acoustique plus "intime", un style allant des standards de jazz à des trucs plus modernes (fusion, hybride jazz / hip hop, R&B, gig payante de top 40, etc.). Les seuls trucs qui ne m'intéressent vraiment pas sont le métal, le punk, et les bands rock à 2 guitares de type "Nickelback."
On peut me joindre par courriel au francois barre de soulignement payen, "A commercial" ya hoo point com. Au plaisir!
