Tehachapi Mountain Festival

Overview

I'm a drummer, lead and background vocalist and have over 30 years of live and touring experience. I have experience in arranging vocal harmonies. I have a professional attitude which means I play for the song, not for myself. Played with LA based rock soul band, Tom Thumb and the Hitchhikers for over 30 years and I'm currently the drummer and lead vocalist for R&B/Blues band The New Vinyl. I have good equipment, good transportation, good meter, I love to play and I show up on time, which means , I get there early. I'm available for any kind of situation.

About

I live in Lancaster, CA and I travel to LA for most all of my gigs. I have other musician friends who are looking for paying gigs also. I sing lead and background. The video shows me singing a blues tune, but I can also handle other types. I have a bass player friend of over 30 years and we have played in many bands, recording sessions and casual gigs together. I can also put a band together very quickly to cover last minute gigs. If you need a sub drummer at the last minute, I can handle it. I'm reliable and have good equipment. Oh yea, I get along with everyone.
