TABLA ~Rhythmic Poetry In the Songs Key

TABLA's percussive rhythmic foundation plays 2 the Melody of the Song and follows the vocals

TABLA is Tuned to the Key of the Song & is the only percussion instrument in the world with no conflicting overtones

I play TABLA 2 Rock Pop Metal R&B Acoustic Funk EDM Hip Hop & daBlues..

TABLA has a sweet sexy tone, to a sound harder than ROCK!

TABLA are not bongos or congas, not only in TABLAs sound, but its different rhythm structure applied to compliment your sound

TABLA is Melodic Rhythmic Poetry

I'm a Multi*Percussion Session Musician with Int'l Touring experience seeking more:-) I welcome local Gigs & Jams from small Clubs to Arena's ->I'm EverReady!

I look to compliment your sound..your Musical Art.

I have all the percussion toys, AND, I play "live" TABLA 2 Rock Pop Metal Blues R&B Acoustic Funk EDM Hip Hop & daBlues <-who else do dat..nobody do, just me do dat, Ha!:-)

MY HISTORY~ New York City is my home base! I began on Kit Drums in bands playing American Rock English Pop and Motown. I've logged Major Artist Sessions at Major Int'l Studios + Toured Internationally. I'm looking for more!! ..to continue the endless groove:-)

BONUS:->> I also play Roland's HandSonic (has 14 Drum Kits) plus every Percussion Instrument in the World, with effects:-)

EQUIPMENT

OKAY, HERE'S THE BORING TECH STUFF:
Roland's HandSonic has every Percussion Instrument in the World. Each sound has full dynamics and with my Amp or a club pa or with a monster arena sound system, I have a huge awesome fat sound on a small club stage!

BONUS:-> I play "live" TABLA..btw, no one plays TABLA to Rock Pop & Motown, but I do, and I bring that Melodic percussion with Love, Emotion and Soul!

FYI..I studied with Alla Rakha ~Ravi Shankar's Tabla player..but I play RAWK! ..and Pop Funk R&B Metal Acoustic EDM Hip Hop & Blues..

Kit Drums + Bass Guitar + TABLA = FAT Rhythm Section.

MORE DETAILED TECH:
TABLA is tuned to the Key of the Song, and TABLAs sound fits like a glove with FUNK ROCK ACOUSTIC R&B! ..TABLA kicks ass with Metal & Hard Rock too!! Or can be sweet & sexy with R&B Funk & Soul...

TABLA is unique percussion, and applies a different Rhythmic approach to the foundation of contemporary music, as TABLA plays to the Vocal and Melody Line. So depending on the song, I can apply a basic straight forward simple rhythmic foundation and follow the Vocal and Melody lines, or play with or around the Drummer or with the Bass player or with or around other percussion or both, weave in and out, as my focus is always on complimenting the music from top to bottom, inside and out less or more (whatever the song calls for) and all, within a Melodic Rhythmic Foundation..

TABLA = icing on the cake.

Btw, I love Acoustic Kit's but also Sequencers, Effects, Colors.. its all about complimenting the Song, with Emotion and having a sweet Tone and Sound.. getting to a higher ground.

My goal is to inspire your playing, enhance your creativity, and compliment your sound.
