Hey I'm Garet . I am a 27 year old dude, a somewhat established musician from the Los Angeles area. I've been playing drums for 18 years, for a good chunk of that time I toured all over the US and a bit of Canada. I've been fortunate enough to share the stage with The Flaming Lips, Stone Temple Pilots, Bat For Lashes, Frank Black (Pixies), Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and many more. I've also given some lessons throughout the years. Without giving much more away, I am here for a new source of inspiration, to meet like minded creative people, to play more shows, make more records, and enjoy my life here in beautiful Portland. Simple as that.
I am Interested in Live performance, session work, TV/ film licensing, giving lessons.
For major auditions I've got great references upon request.
For lessons I've got testimonials upon request.
