ABOUT

I am a singer, songwriter. I am comfortable on rhythm, guitar. I am a good steady rhythm drummer. I also play hand drums and facilitate hand, drumming circles. I like to play around with any instruments.

I played with a couple of local bands when I was younger, but life got too busy raising a daughter, and running a business. Now I am retired, I have a little home studio, and I’m looking for people to make music with.

My original music projects go by the name of D’CREE. I am looking for the right people to bring this band back to life. And to create much more.

I’ve been playing with some local guys at the Black River Centennial Hall. Located on the S. Black River Rd., just before Little BranchRoad
We are the Friday night jam band. I provide the drum kit for the jam, and I’m more than willing to sit in and back you up if you can play some songs. It would be nice to see more support, musicians, coming out. Some more bass guitar players and drummers would be nice. We would love anybody local to come out and join us. Good dancing cheap beers.
