About East Bay

THE BAND WRITES AND PERFORMS

East Bay Drive pulls its name from one of the large bays in Traverse City, Michigan.  The color of East Bay water in the summer is turquoise blue and reminds us of the Caribbean waters only without the salt.  US 31 follows the water from Traverse City to Petoskey/Harbor Springs and is an easy drive just like our music.

The band writes and performs original music as well as music from top contemporary jazz artists the likes of: Fourplay, Yellow Jackets, Jeff Golub, Larry Carlton, Lee Ritenour, George Duke, David Sanborn, Steely Dan, Natalie Cole, The Crusaders, Bob James, Michael Jackson, ToTo, Jeff Beck, Michael Franks, Pat Metheny, Bob Marley, to name a few.
