Professional drummer/percussionist. I do this for a living, not as a hobby. I play all styles from big band, bebop jazz, straight rock, pop-Top 40, new/old country, as well as Latin, funk and R&B. I can read music or play by ear. Currently freelancing with a few groups in town and certainly available for more work.
