To entertain people with the love and joy of freedom and musical expression

 What I'm doing as a responsible band leader is taking on the quartet band sound. That's unique! For me in itself,  I'm known for my singing.  Now playing guitar/singing is something that I'm genuinely proud of accomplishing.  So locally you won't get the type of show others put on. Most won't attempt it. This ArnellDerek Band is a product of years of learning to give back to the jazz community.  That will come with entrepreneurial ideals and memories of Jazz legends that we all have listened to from the past and some now in the present.  I'm willing to work locally to help whomever I can.  Share some of my highlights below.  You can embed a video, document, or presentation to summarize the work. Join my email listing below. I do so much more than play music. Music is what I love, helping others is what I do. Please allow me to perform for you so can see for yourself.
