ABOUT

Are you a solo artist in need of a drummer for recording or gigs? Is your band in need of a hired gun?

My Name is Art and I'm 19 Years old and currently live in Grand Prairie, Texas.

I have professional recording gear, so if needed I can simply record my track and send it your way. But I can also travel to make it to sessions. I'm open to play any style. My roots lie in Progressive Rock, so I can play with dynamics and odd times. I can play Rock to Pop; Country to Blues; Funk to Jazz and everything in between. I can also sing and write lyrics; as well as provide percussion tracks.

Influences

Just alittle about me: My favorite drummers are Mike Portnoy, Nick D'virgilio, Jimmy Keegan, Dave Lemonds, John Bonham. Samples can be found at my :///ajfmusic

EQUIPMENT

Shells: I Use a number of kits, but this is my new one. Its a beautiful Tama Starclassic with a Dark Cherry Fade finish. The sizes are as follows:

10" Rack Tom
12" Rack Tom

18x22 Bass Drum
10x14 Tama Starclassic Snare
7x14 Pearl Piccolo Snare

Cymbals: I have recently switched over to Sabian. My Cymbal set-up changes from time to time, as I often get bored and change it up for the sake of inspiration. However, this tends to be the most consistent:

16" Crash
18" Crash
2 10" Stacked Splash's
10" Splash
8" Splash
14" Hi-Hats (w/ Mute Pad)

Hardware: The hardware is a little more scattered. I use mostly Gibraltar stands and such, except my DW Hats. My Pedals are Tama Iron Cobra Double Pedals. Best double pedals I have ever played.

Percussion: I have various percussion items that are on-and-off the kit. I try to stick with Latin Percussion. It Goes as follows:

Clave
Chimes
