I am a professional drummer and percussionist. I studied Jazz at the University of North Texas, and played in the Dallas -Fort Worth area for 28 years. I recently returned to Omaha, and am seeking work with like-minded musicians.
I have played/recorded many styles of music, but my mainstays include Jazz, Fusion, Funk/R&B, Worship and Gospel, and of course the bread and butter gigs (rock, pop, country).
