I am a professional freelance drummer with 30 years of experience. I'm available for hire in the San Antonio and surrounding areas. I enjoy playing all styles of music, ranging from smooth jazz, praise and worship, dance, latin, R&B, jazz, Christian, tejano and more. I have performed with several smooth jazz national recording artists, such as Vincent Ingala, Gregg Adams, Unam with Shannon Kennedy, Peter White, Elizabeth Mis, Tom Browne and Slimman. Before every performance, I like to be fully prepared and informed. Please, send me your music and/or songlist and I will be ready come showtime... I'm also available for studio work and private lessons.
My brother recently passed away and he loved playing the drums, so I wanted to have a drummer play some of his favorite songs during the services. So I searched online and found Rene the Drummer on GigSalad. He contacted me right away, we discussed the type of music we wanted him to play and gave him the list of songs we would be requesting during the services. The day of the services, Rene the Drummer showed up on time and was prepared to perform, and perform he did! He turned my vision of my brothers services into a reality and delivered the celebration of life we wanted our family and friends to remember about my brother. Rene, to me and my family, you are more than a drummer, you are an Angel of God, and we can't thank you enough for gracing us with your talent. May God bless you always. Edward Noriega & Family
Response from Rene On Drums:
It was deeply an honor and a privilege to give this family something to remember their brother. Ironically, the deceased brother had attended the same high school I did. This made the connection more meaningful than what it already was. Thank you, Edward Noriega, for allowing me to be part of your ceremony and your family. May God truly bless you and your family as He is your healer, provider, and will mend your hearts.

A native of San Antonio, I have 28 years of professional drumming experience. I've played with many local bands and have traveled to various parts of this great nation as a full-time musician. I've done studio work and provide private lessons as well. I studied at the University of Texas at San Antonio. So, reading music is one of my abilities. When hired for a job, I ask for a song list and/or mp3's of the songs to be performed for the gig. My expectations are to provide the best performance possible to the band's satisfaction.
