Doylestown Drummer - Kiyoshi + Musician in Doylestown, PA

ABOUT

Available for gigs and recordings. All styles - from piano trio to big band, hard rock to horn funk, fusion to latin feel, I can handle them all authentically and then add some more color. Pro gear, reliable transportation. pro attitude. Sober, and No egos. I read, and improvise. I learn new materials fast and adjust quickly to suggestions. Most of all, I play for the groove, and the music. Studied with Justin "Jay" Bruno, Kenwood Dennard, and Casey Scheuerell. I'm also a Berklee educated arranger for horns, strings, and voice. 215-817-8754, funkdrums at g mail dot com.
