The Windham Group

"Old soul, new school, one mind," is how the Windham Group describes their musical philosophy. Taking from their influences and molding these styles into their own while still respecting their forefathers makes for a smooth, classy jazz-funk creation.



Improvisation is also a big part of what the group presents to the world as they jam their way through jazz riffs and the Orlando, FL music scene. Guitarist and vocalist Errol Windham realizes that improv is what brings the group together, which also consists of drummers Matt Brown,Jeremy Katalenic and bassist Tony Venturini. The Windham Group displays their chemistry by performing perfect transitions in their improv sessions. The Drum keeps a light, intricate, steady beat as Windham and Venturini trade off solos. Not afraid to explore the higher notes a bass can produce, Venturini is brave in his soloing and is a true asset to the group. Windham drives the jazz-funk feel home with his rhythmic guitar riffs and classic solos. While performing, the Windham Group subtly pays tribute to their influences that include Miles Davis, George Benson and just about any jazz or blues artist you can think of. Every now and then, a bit of rock or reggae sound peeks through the jazz as well, if you listen carefully. Mostly instrumental, the Windham Group is easy to listen to as they create a wonderfully calming vibe in any room they play in.



Each individual has each been surrounded by music their whole lives and live it everyday. They have known each other for over ten years, have been playing together in one form or another for over six years, but have only recently discovered their chemistry as a permanent group. The Windham Group thrives in this chemistry and their goal is to share the passion they have for their music with the masses.
