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 wav
	e and pop music of the time\, which is apparent in his original jazz c
	ompositions. 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 b
	lues licks\, basic -classical techniques\, and always tried to sway Tu
	cker into Jazz guitar stylings. One of Tucker's fondest memories is of
	 his Grandpa Will Rountree playing old Jazz standards on the piano and
	 guitar\, which harvested the first seeds of Tucker's passion for Jazz
	 music.  It wasn't until the age of 14\, after "accidentally" checking
	 out a big band album from the local library\, that Tucker actually st
	arted listening to Jazz.  That accident turned out to be an act of fat
	e\, which eventually snowballed his interest.      Tucker's favorite i
	nfluences include John Coltrane\, Pat Metheny\, Eric Johnson\, John Mc
	Laughlin\, Wayne Shorter\, Wes Montgomery\, Miles Davis\, Keith Jarret
	t\, and Wolfgang Muthspiel.  Tucker is a completely self-taught musici
	an and firmly believes that the best way to learn jazz is by playing i
	t where ever you can\, with whom ever you can.  Tucker has had the opp
	ortunity to play with many talented Austin musicians including\, Rosco
	e Beck (bassist for Eric Johnson & Robben Ford)\, Chris Maresh (bassis
	t for Eric Johnson)\, David Chenu (tenor saxophone)\, Philipe Vioux (t
	enor saxophone who toured with Horace Silver)\, and Brannen Temple..  
	The Tucker Rountree Sound tours regionally (Austin\, Houston\, Kansas 
	City\, Salt Lake City\, Seattle...to name a few) and where ever there 
	is a listening audience!  When Tucker is not on the road\, he also tea
	ches guitar privately.
