ABOUT

Sorry guys !!!! These are my practice recording at Church, so quality of sound is no good but you can hear only me & a great Keyboardist from the singing group "The Manhattans". I didn't have much Gospel back ground but I'm so getting into it.

I'm a female R&B and Funk drummer who've been playing drums for 15 years in San Francisco, CA and bay area. I moved to NYC from CA 10 years ago and I was playing at Church for 10 years.
I don't have any Music connections here, so I'm always looking for a good professional band but It has to be professional and serious musicians only !!!!
I play FUNK, R&B, HIP-HOP, GOSPEL, FUSION, JAZZ etc,

About Gospel,
I worked with Reverend Deborah L. Johnson who's a president of Inner Light Ministries and played Monterey Jazz Festival with her choirs and also played with choirs from Rev. Cecil Williams, Glide Church many more.
I play Classic & Contemporary Gospel but I got into Gospel World playing Contemporary first. I'd been playing Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton & New Breed, John P. Kee, Fred Hammond, Hezekiah Walker, Israel Houghton & Kurt Carr etc....etc.... so many great great song writers & Musicians in the Gospel World !!!! This will be my main world to stick to my Music career that's for sure .....
