Band to Join, Vocalist - Tenor, Vocalist - Soprano, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
Hey guys I'm a drummer based out of Manhattan and Brooklyn.
I play all kinds of rock, and have done gigs and shows for the last 3 years. Love playing at studios and either covering or jamming out/making new music.
I eat, sleep and crave music, and my life revolves around the next time I can get to a drum set and make some killer beats.
I casually jam with a few bands now but looking for something permanent. I work in finance by day and drum by night. I normally jam weeknights after 8pm or on weekends. I consider myself very in tune with melodies, harmonies and notes in general. Given that I'm a music junkie, I like to make sure that the output and the songs sound good. I try not to overpower the music with my drums, but rather, to complement it. There's a fine line!
