ABOUT

I play a lot of jazz/fusion funky rock and world based music - like to play melodically - always in the pocket , but feel as if percussion is not a 1-4 counting exercise, it should be as much of the art of music as the keys ,voice ,etc. - basically looking to have fun but always challenge the moment- interested in smooth jazz/fusion jamband with and my personal style incorporates Afro/Cuban music too-oh yeah I have a very soft dynamic- not a powerHITTER-a player
