He has played with Tom Kubis, Cecilia Coleman and others and has gigged around clubs in Orange County and played jazz in collegiate and professional big bands. This debut album features nine new jazz tunes (Ballads, Bossa, and Bop).The tunes were selected from jam session recordings featuring Reg and various sidemen playing in intimate small combo settings.
