ABOUT

My name is Joel Purkess, I recently toured the world with The Mason Rack Band (Canada, Europe, Australia). I also have a diploma from Grant MacEwan University in Drumming and I have played over 700 live gigs, recorded 3 albums and a DVD as well as taught at a school for music.

I am currently available for gigs/teaching/studio work, check my website or email me through this add if you are interested in my services. I have a professional attitude and can adapt to any genre or stage show you might require. I am trained in Rock, Jazz, Funk, Blues and Fusion but can play any type of music. With me you know you are getting a reliable, focused and dedicated musician who will make your music sound the way you want it to.

As mentioned earlier I have my own website, feel free to browse the site or you can youtube Joel Purkess as their are lots of fan posted videos of me drumming live. Thank you for your time
