FREELANCE POST-BOP JAZZ / JAZZ-FUNK SESSION DRUMMER Contact me via Cell = 845 901 4072, Set Lists to = [email protected]
In between studio sessions, I’m listening and playing to plenty hard swinging Hard Bop and funky Post-Bop Jazz. My folks introduced me to their Hard Bop, and Smooth Jazz favorites, while I was growing up during the Golden Age of Hip Hop and Neo Soul.
Due to my passion, for both hard swinging Hard Bop, and funky Post-Bop Jazz, I took lessons from world-renowned drum instructors at a prominent drum school, and superlative music conservatory. I’m having fun doing sessions in the studios of southern Westchester County and Manhattan.
