ABOUT
AUDIO & VIDEO COMING SOON
I am a very committed drummer currently playing in two bands, and a sit in in two bands. I've played numerous shows and have done studio recording. I've played many different genres including classic rock, metal, honky tonk, folk, blues, etc. I do not feel busy enough musically and am having a hard time finding musicians on a certain level. Looking to join an established band or start fresh and take it as far as it can go. I can host practice once a week.
-Check out .chrisdegnoreandtheblackdrops for a look at some of my music. I'm also in a cover band that does weddings and such. I also work with Billy Brandt and the Sugarees. For past work you can check out Jupiter Child, a three piece I was previously in. There are different bands if that name on be...if you look at my photos you can tell which band is the right Jupiter Child.
