DAVE HANLON — DRUMS

Funky Jazz comes full circle.

Dave has been a fixture of the Syracuse music scene since the 1970s. If you’ve been to nearly any live music event or festival during that time, it’s likely you’ve heard him play. Most recently, you’ve probably seen him fat JazzFest or many of the music friendly places around Syracuse. Learn more about Dave, or even book lessons at his personal website.

In this incarnation of Funky Jazz Band, Dave once again gathers some of his best friends and the most talented musicians he knows to play great music and have fun doing it.
