SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
Rock Drummer for over 30 years, from West Orange NJ. As a product of the 70's and 80's I have had the pleasure of performing in the Manhattan, Jersey and Chicago circuits. Currently and for the past 15 years, I've been residing in Jacksonville, playing in local clubs and some touring. I would describe my technique with versatility and ranges that would include tribal, melodic, dynamic finesse and percussions to hard hitting rock. I have a single kick and a rabbit foot. I'm gainfully employed, have reliable transportation, some sound equipment, fully functional rehearsal space if needed and enjoy singing back up vocals. I've played with artist such as Banner Thomas from "Molly Hatchet", Larry Junstrom from "38 Special" and Buzzy Meekins from "Outlaws, Blackfoot and Molly Hatchet". Music is my passion and instead of going on and on, I prefer to let the music speak for itself.
