ABOUT

VETERAN PRO DRUMMER:
THE GROOVE MASTER-Donny Vosburgh’s credits read like an anthology of the best of American music. The drummer has performed with some of the country’s most influential artists, including James Brown, Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions, Iron Butterfly, Cactus, Thee Image, Alice Cooper and the Grammy Award winning Band Blues Image with their number one hit “Ride Captain Ride.”.

He started in Funk/R&B playing in the band with such legendary Artist as James Brown’s only Caucasian Drummer and also performed with Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions, Jerry Butler, Solomon and Burke and Mother’s Finest.

In addition to R&B and Rock, Vosburgh also has performed in the classical genre with Liberace protégé Classical Pianist Linda Gentile and The New Jersey Shore Pop Orchestra.
“I’m what you call a feel player,” he says. “I’m a chameleon. I’m not just one kind of player. I’m everything.”

Donny also played in Las Vegas at the International Hotel with Headlining Show Band “The Entertainers “appearing with such greats as Elvis Presley, Don Rickles, Jack Benny and Buddy Hackett

Donny has been an recording Artist on Atlantic Records,RCA,Polydor and Emerson,Lake and Palmer’s Label Manticore Records as both writer and performer. Donny was accepted and is a member of the writers Guild ASCAP.

Donny appeared on TV in such classics as The Midnight Special and Don Kirshner’s Rock Concerts. His largest audience was 350,000 people at the Ozark Mountain Music Fest with the Band Cactus. However, despite the legendary laundry list, Vosburgh says the crowning achievement in his music career didn’t come until February 2006, when he was invited by the Department of Defense to perform for troops stationed in Iraq. “That was a real honor,” he says.
