I'm Ricardo Floyd from Tampa, Fl. I'm 42 years old. I've been playing drums since the age of 3. I got my first gig at 5 at my mom's church playing drums. I learned to read music in middle school where I joined the marching band. I later took my drumming a step further by getting a scholarship to Bethune Cookman University in Daytona Beach, Fl. When I left college I was working in the Entertainment department at Busch Gardens Tampa. I was a member of The Mystic Sheiks of Morrocco band for 6years where we played music thru out the park playing music and performing shows. We also traveled from country to country doing shows in Spain, Italy, Puerto Rico and many others. I've always been a drumset player with a solid pocket listening and driving the band.
