SEEKING
Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I’ve been playing drums since the early 1970’s, playing professionally for 30+ years, and teaching drum lessons for 20+ years. Due to a bad experience with my last band, I took a break from playing out, although I kept teaching because I love to teach drums!
I am looking for a cover or original rock band that is currently playing out or is getting ready to do so. I can play most any style except jazz. Rock, Funk, Blues, Metal, Classic Rock, Southern Rock are preferred. I have experience playing/recording in the studio, on television, and big festivals like Atlanta Fest at Six Flags, and the Icthus Festival in Kentucky for over 20,000 people.
