SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
A Calgary based Country, Rock & Blues Drummer, who grew up behind the kit from an early age. It all started when I found a pair of drum sticks in my grandfathers workshop, I have always just been able to play right from the beginning. My first band I played in was a band put together by my grade 3 music teacher called the Mothballs. We played every Friday assembly. I most play by ear and feel, although I can play to a click. I've have mostly just played by myself, however I did play in a touring country band from Sweetgrass Saskatchewan and a rock cover band later on in Edmonton Alberta. I love to have fun, and just play, it about the music and getting people to dance after all.
