Drummer Dave A + Musician in Irons, MI

ABOUT

I'm a mature musician dedicated to giving a great performance at every show and don't like drama or attitudes. I like to be organized and professional when doing gigs and tend to be a perfectionist with my part of the music. I prefer mutually dedicated bandmates who come prepared to rehearsals to make the best use of time, but jamming with friends is fun too. The ideal bandmates for me are those who pay attention to the details of the songs and can also add their own creative ideas, all while having a fun time following our passion of making great music. Call (231) 298-0037, (616) 403-3094 or e-mail drummerdavea.
