ABOUT

I’ve been playing drums/percussion for 50 years. I’ve played with Sly and the family Stone, The Shadows of Night (“Gloria”) and have played in dance clubs all over the country. I have been an Audio Engineer for the past 20 years for the Cubs, Bulls, Sox, Bears and 3 Seasons on The Steve Harvey Show receiving recognition for the FOH Mixer fron Natl Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
I love drumming and am looking for good local musicians ( whether studio or performing )
