ABOUT

Wasup everybody. Welcome to my page. My name is danny and Ive been playin music all my life. Ive been a drummer since the age of 2 and a piano player since I was 13. Im happy to say that I am not a picky musician. I love all styles of music and can play most of them very well. Fortunately, I grew up in church where I was able to sharpen my skills and become fluent in the styles of gospel, contemporary christian, alternative, latin and r&b. Music for me is not only a gift or a passion but it is a full time job as well. Although, like in many other musician's cases, I havent gotten to my ideal salary yet. But that comes with the territory. If there is anything else you would like to know, jus shoot me a comment. Thanks
