ABOUT

I am a highly experienced and knowledgeable drummer, with a deep passion for music and rhythm... it is who I am... my soul. I have performed over the last 10-12 years in three different bands... 1 in Iowa and 2 here in Illinois. Unfortunately, I have had a hard time finding the right people to get back to where I have been before (on stage, and getting paid), since moving to my current location... Washington, IL. I work full time in Lacon but willing to invest remaining free in dedication to practice for serious prospects related to playing out forr compensation.Ideally seeking band or people who are need of drummer percussionist, have gigs already lined up or trying to, and share the same passion/goals as myself.

EQUIPMENT

I recently bought a brand new 4 pc. DW Design Series shell kit, with custom pearl snare, mixed with some hardware from previous set. In addition to this set up I have all drums mic'd with my own mixing board to send to main board. Previously owned a Gretsch Catalina Maple 6 piece drum set. I have all Ziljian cymbals including a 20" ZHT ride, 18" ZHT crash, 17" ZHT crash, 16" ZHT china, and a pair of 14" ZHT mastersound hi-hats. I also have a headliner series Meinel cajon for acoustic sounds as well as many different types of drum sticks specially designed to play acoustically on my set. In addition to this equipment, I also have a collapsible an portable stage on wheels.
