ABOUT

Experienced drummer looking for a gig; practice once a week, play out a couple of times a month. Rock, funk, jazz; covers or originals (yours!). I also sing lead and backing, and play hand percussion for acoustic sets. Especially looking for mixed-gender band (not skeezy, just sounds and draws better). Sober, reliable, flexible. "All the Young Dudes" recorded with my last band in Chapel Hill, drums and backing vox.
