Saxophonist Arthur Green has a deep, soulful tone. With roots in Virginia and then playing trumpet in the Navy Band, he has come into his own in New York City under the tutelage of King Curtis, Rodney Kendricks, and Barry Harris. In high demand for cover gigs, due to his searing tributes to Motown's Junior Walker, Arthur leads his own band The Green Machine, featuring an appealing blend of jazz, funk, blues and R&B that is all his own.
