ABOUT

Experienced drummer with 20+ years of playing in 7+ different bands covering multiple genres of music. I’ve played in both original and cover bands playing and influenced by 90s/00s rock and grunge, classic rock, jam band, and progressive rock. I have studio recording experience in multiple bands as well as playing out live in various venues including 1 east coast tour. Looking to find a band that gigs regularly on a monthly basis - open to either a cover band or original music - that is also a paying gig. I am 38 with a family (wife and 2 daughters) so can commit to 1x a week practicing and will commit to practicing at home outside of band practice. Hope to find musicians with a similar life style and want to have fun playing music, but are serious to their craft and want to perform at a high level.
