Drums.ABOUT
I've been playing in various bands since I was 16. I've had 10+ years experience as a drummer and 8+ years experience as a bass player. I've also had studio experience, and want to increase that.
I currently play in a band called "The Level" in the Staunton-Waynesboro-Charlottesville-Harrisonburg area. We play primarily modern rock and funk (Chili Peppers, Maxwell, Maroon 5, Matchbox Twenty, John Mayer, Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews, etc.) and our own material as well. The band will be playing a few shows in the Budweiser Concert Series in the Summer of 2009, as well as headlining the Waynesboro Summer Extravaganza in July 2009. We also play regularly at Wintergreen Ski Resort and in Staunton at the Bysers St. Bistro and the former Clocktower Tavern.
