VICTOR LITTLE AND LIFE Featuring Victor Little on Bass, Jaco Abel from Madrid on Guitar, Reinhardt Melz from Portland, OR on Drums, Sandy Perez from Cuba on Congas.

Once again, DSRC gives you a band, consisting of session musicians and backing players for live tours, whose resumes are top notch – but whose names are not known to the general public.

Stellar bassist, Victor Little and Life will be presenting a dynamic evening of Contemporary Instrumental Jazz, Latin Jazz and Flamenco Jazz. Friends for over 20 years, they’ve come together for a terrific display of diverse musical genres. This one’s gonna smoke!

Victor Little’s bass contributions include recordings and performances with luminary artists Patti Austin, Billy Preston, Angela Bofill, James Carter, Charlie Musselwhite, Joyce Cooling, and the legendary Booker T. Jones (Booker T. and the MGs).

Reinhardt Melz has been a working drummer since he was 16. Born in Los Angeles, raised in Portland, OR, Reinhardt currently tours with Gino Vannelli and has played with Curtis Salgado, Buddy Guy, Ernestine Anderson and Bobby Torres, among many others.
Ramon “Sandy” Garcia Perez, a master Batalero/Congero, and principal/lead percussionist for 12 years with Grupo Afro-Cuba de Matanzas, is recognized the world over for his expertise as a percussionist and instructor. Sandy Perez, who is a direct decendant from the legendary Villamil family, brings a wealth of knowledge while continuing the legacy of Afro-Cuban folklore from the cradle of African Culture in Cuba: Matanzas. Sandy joined Grupo Afro-Cuba de Matanzas at age 17, and within a few years he earned the position of principal drummer and soloist; a privilege he maintained until his move to the US.
Jaco Abel has lived in Barcelona, Madrid, the USA, and Holland, where he has played, recorded and toured with a great variety of musicians from around the world, such as: Thijs van Leer (Focus), Jimmy Smith , M’Shelle N’Dege O’Cello (bass/vocal), Mike Stern, Tower of Power and a host of popular Spanish/European musicians overseas. He is also a teacher of master classes in Electric Flamenco Guitar.
