SUMMARY:Tucker Roundtree Trio
DESCRIPTION:Tucker Rountree is a composer\, jazz guitarist\, and educa
	tor.  As a product of the eighties\, he was engrained with the new wa
	ve and pop music of the time\, which is apparent in his original jazz 
	compositions. Tucker was given his first guitar at the tender age of 4
	\, and really started to get excited about learning at age 7 under his
	 father's (Philip Rountree) guidance. His dad taught Tucker his first 
	blues licks\, basic -classical techniques\, and always tried to sway T
	ucker into Jazz guitar stylings. One of Tucker's fondest memories is o
	f his Grandpa Will Rountree playing old Jazz standards on the piano an
	d guitar\, which harvested the first seeds of Tucker's passion for Jaz
	z music.  It wasn't until the age of 14\, after "accidentally" checki
	ng out a big band album from the local library\, that Tucker actually 
	started listening to Jazz.  That accident turned out to be an act of 
	fate\, which eventually snowballed his interest.      Tucker's fav
	orite influences include John Coltrane\, Pat Metheny\, Eric Johnson\, 
	John McLaughlin\, Wayne Shorter\, Wes Montgomery\, Miles Davis\, Keith
	 Jarrett\, and Wolfgang Muthspiel.  Tucker is a completely self-taugh
	t musician and firmly believes that the best way to learn jazz is by p
	laying it where ever you can\, with whom ever you can.  Tucker has ha
	d the opportunity to play with many talented Austin musicians includin
	g\, Roscoe Beck (bassist for Eric Johnson & Robben Ford)\, Chris Mares
	h (bassist for Eric Johnson)\, David Chenu (tenor saxophone)\, Philipe
	 Vioux (tenor saxophone who toured with Horace Silver)\, and Brannen T
	emple..  The Tucker Rountree Sound tours regionally (Austin\, Houston
	\, Kansas City\, Salt Lake City\, Seattle...to name a few) and where e
	ver there is a listening audience!  When Tucker is not on the road\, 
	he also teaches guitar privately.
