SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I've been playing for 40 years. I've been in several bands and experienced moderate local success in the 90's NY music scene. I took a break from Serious drumming from 2001 until November 2019. Since picking the sticks up again I put together my current setup and have spent a ton of time getting back in the groove. I also put together a nice recording set up and have been working on some original music as well as recording an album with a fantastic guitar player and song writer.
If you have some original music that needs some drum tracks added let me know.

Billy Bad Ass
Billy Bad Ass Genre: Rock
This is a tribute to The Morris Brothers Band. I met these cats in 1997 at the most epic Halloween party at the Voodoo Lounge in Manhattan. My band was on break and these two showed up dressed as Ace and Gene and asked if they could play a couple Kiss songs during the break. I joined them on stage and knocked out a couple songs with them. I bought their CD that night and it has been one of my favorites ever since.
