Steady reliable dedicated drummer currently working on the tribute scene. Seeking the like minded to form a regular working outfit. Can collaborate on original ideas but lean toward regular paying gigs. I work well with click and tracks as and have decent working music theory.
Can also play a little of guitar and bass when required.
I love playing the pocket, be it a blues shuffle or simple single bar phrase. I do prefer to form 2-4 bar phrases. Can also be very creative with multiple bar rhythms and go over the bar line with busy fills in time. Enjoy working with Latin and Afro Cuban rhythms, Funky Linear stuff, Odd Time feel in 5 and 7, simple Jazz phrasing with sticks or brushes.
