ABOUT
I have played drums most of my life, mostly in church. From 12-20 years old in southern gospel group. Played in high school band and with friends in a pop garage band.
In Nashville from 1995-2007 played in orchestra at Two Rivers Baptist Church. We played a variety of styles from black gospel, pop, ballads, to orchestral pieces.
Currently playing at New Vision in Murfreesboro. Modern worship style which I would equate to simple pop.
