ABOUT

Drummer with 20+ years experience looking to form a band that is a little different the norm. I would like to put together a band that plays a mix of Funk/Latin/Smooth Jazz, even some R&B mixed in there. I am well aquainted with the exhausting process of auditioning and trying to find the right vibe but I'm hoping there are enough musicians out there like me that are tired of playing the same type of music so predominent in STL.

Musician’s wish list: lead vocal(s), bass, keys, guitar percussionist, possible horns (Sax, Trombone). Huge plus if you have rehearsal space/PA equipment. Please e-mail me if this sounds like a passion of yours and you are willing to put in the time and effort to get something like this going. --Rob
