ABOUT

I’m a percussionist with over 50 years in playing all types of music. My main instrument is the drum set but I also play Bodhráns, Jambe and a full range of hand drums. I’ve played in everything from small jazz and big bands to rock and soul groups to concert bands and orchestras. I’d like to have some fun playing with other retired musicians on a regular basis and possibly play an occasional volunteer or paid gigs.
