Quintin Gerard W.

The Fnkysax Player

About Me

��When Scott O��Brien from smoothjazz.com dubbed Quintin Gerard W. ��a smooth jazz star��, he got the ��star�� part right, but ��smooth�� is only one part of the equation for this romantic and highly rhythmic player who rightly brands himself ��The Fnkysax Player��. In defining what he does, the versatile composer and performer mentions elements of funk, R&B, gospel, blues and jazz, and all these textures are wonderfully and amply represented on his latest album Before It��s Gone. �C Jonathan Widran, Jazziz, All Music

My Jazz Story

I love jazz because..."It changes everyday...!" I was first exposed to jazz..."By listening to the radio on a Sunday Afternoon." I met [Kenny Garrett]..."On a street corner outside a Jazz Club in L.A." The best show I ever attended was..."Miles Davis Live at the Hollywood Bowl!" The first jazz record I bought was..."Catching The Sun by: Spyro Gyra" My advice to new listeners..."Don't close your mind, listen to all genres of Music!" Finally..."Don't 'sell out' your Creativity for a buck...! Stay TRUE and stay REAL in whatever sound you make or produce!!!!" - Quintin Gerard W.
