Distance From Shelter + Band in San Francisco, CA

SEEKING

ABOUT

We're looking for that maestro rock drummer. Where are you? A mixture of John Bonham, Mitch Mitchell, Daney Carey, Luke Flowers style. Someone with chops, groove, solid meter and an innovative style who has a huge dynamic range. We've played Uptown Nightclub, Elbo Room, Thee Parkside, Left Coast Live festival, etc. We have gotten a tiny bit of press. We were just getting this band off the ground when our drummer had to quit. No beginners, no flakes, no egos. We're super chill and easy to work with and hoping to find that perfect fit, someone who wants to be part of a band.
