SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a seasoned drummer/vocalist with road band experience. I have played in many bands over the past 25 plus years. My music versatility stems from bands that played Bluegrass, jazz, ("disco" LOL) rock, heavy metal, classic rock, country, contemporary Christian, and pop. I even fronted a pop road band for almost a year singing lead. I am a firm advocate for serious, hard practices where everybody comes musically prepared for the material that will be put together at practices. I am a sociable easy kind of guy and am a serious team player. I believe that a band should have a leader/director that everyone should respect and listen to both at practices and on stage. I don't smoke, use drugs or drink liquor, and I hope that no one else does while at practices or on stage. Please give me a call.
