ABOUT

Great drummer looking to join a band or start a band with musicians that have a great and positive attitude. I consider myself to have a fun and energetic personality and I get along great with others. I have a strong work ethic and believe that practice, practice, practice is very important for a band. I have experience as a guitar player for 8 years. I can help with song writing. I know what it means to have to sacrifice for the greater good of the band. Loyalty, a hard work ethic, I am always on time, and a positive attitude is what you will get out of me. I like to work with people who don't take themselves too seriously and know how to laugh. you can contact me at totoole26
