Welcome to the website of Maine-based jazz saxophonist and teacher David Wells. This site is new, so check back often .... I will be adding videos, and even some solo transcriptions for saxophone players.
LATEST NEWS ... The Steve Grover Trio with myself and Tony Gaboury was voted Best Jazz Act of 2009 by the Portland Phoenix. Second place went to one of my other projects, the Portland Jazz Orchestra. Look for the PJO's first album in stores and online Spring 2010!
JUST ADDED! Here's a clip from a recent gig at the Press Room in New Hampshire. The song is John Coltrane's "Resolution" from A Love Supreme, which we performed in it's entirety that night. The band is myself, Trent Austin - trumpet, Ryan Parker - piano, Dmitri Gorodetsky - bass, and Brooke Sofferman - drums.
