Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
My love for the drums began at 8 years old and has continued for 4 decades. I've studied with some amazing teachers who helped me to shape my direction as a player in my early years. I began teaching in my early 20's at the Long Island Drum Center and in my early 30's I became a high school music teacher in Brooklyn, NY.
I am currently looking for recording projects in need of a solid and reliable drummer.
