SEEKING

ABOUT

Drummer with experience playing alternative rock, hard rock, funk and blues. Open to practice and perform.

I started playing the drum kit at age 13 and performed in the Seattle area through the grunge era and then music including 90's rock and contemporary Christian. I relocated to Phoenix where I played in an alternative rock band for about two years. I am open to playing a variety of music genres, however I'm not into metal or hardcore. My goal is to play with others that can push our talents while having fun.

I'm typically comfortable with one group practice per week and one to two shows per month. I am also available for fill-ins.

The first music sample, "She Let Me" was from around 1998. The second sample, "The Knife" was around 2014. Most of the videos are from the past year.

I can play back in the pocket or out in front. I'm interested in playing music with a hook, melody and groove. Please contact me at andrewjmarketer at g mail dot com.
