SEEKING
Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am a fairly seasoned drummer with a very diverse background. I have played in marching bands, concert bands, percussion ensembles, african drumming ensembles, jazz bands, christian rock bands, and rock bands. My main focus has always been rock music, but I am up for anything. I am 25 years old and have been playing the drums for 13 years. I also trained as a singer in the past. I sang in jazz choirs, barber shop groups and acapella chorus groups. I know my limitations though, and so this is being highlighted for the purposes of singing backround parts if needed. I have competed in musical competitions with almost every group listed above, both singing and drumming. I have a 9-5 day job Mon. through Fri. I am however available for practice/gigging on almost all evenings and weekend. I am very excited to get back into playing with a group. Let me know if you need a drummer. I am open to all types of possibilities. You can contact me at brian.rittenhouse at dot com.
