"I played alto saxophone first. I was in the third grade, and my mother brought the saxophone home. My twin brother played the drums, my sister played the clarinet—so it was a musical family. My brother and I, we stuck with it. He plays in church and I play all over the world.

I joined the Lowrider Band, formerly WAR, in 1994. I was playing at Tipitina’s with Don Rousell Band; we were the opening act. And I asked Howard Scott, the guitarist and the leader of the band, if I could sit in with them, because at that point in time, they didn’t have a sax player. And he said, ‘We’ll see. We’ll see.’ And I said, ‘Because I know your motif.’ Bap bap bap dap de dap de da dah dah—the “Lowrider” song.

I went upstairs at Tipitina’s, leaning over the rail, watching their show. And Howard looks up, catches my eye and starts nodding at me, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah.’ I went and sat in with the band and I’ve been with them ever since..."

A masterpiece of music by Lance Ellis featuring guitarist Paul Brown, courtesy of Woodward Avenue Records. Together they dropped this single that has left everyone wanting more. "Can't Get Enough" of this smooth groove.
