Working, living, practicing in the East bay. Looking to find a group that I can add my expertise to. I've played many drumset gigs in the Jazz, Funk, Salsa genres. Also add to that a history of congas, bongó, timbales, etc. For the past few years I've spend some spring months playing steelpan in Trinidad and Tobago. I would love to help spread Soca to the states (it's gonna be the next big thing, I'm sure).
