I am a 42 year old male drummer/percussionist. Who has 39 years of experience at playing percussion and drums it is the main instrument that I play. I can also provide background vocals, keyboards and drums as required but I am not a very good singer. I am also a songwriter and lyricist, I like to work with female vocalists (I find them easier to write for) but I can write for male vocalists. I can work in the studio if required. I can also play other styles as required but I mostly play Country, Jazz/Funk Fusion, Funk, Classic Rock, Rock (Any Style), Southern Rock and Pop (Any Style).
