ABOUT

Ten Years Gone...
After raising kids, I'd like to get back into nightclub or bar gigs focusing on danceable rock, funk, R&B especially in the Southbay area of LA.

I'm looking for a band or players who need a drummer with solid tempo, professional attitude and live gig experience that started in the late 70's. Although my most recent audio demos are on the driving side of rock, I've spent a significant portion of my professional career in touring night club bands playing jazz, funk and dance music. I'm a foundational player focused on the end product of entertainment. I can cover a variety of styles and learn songs quickly (or at least I used to).
