while my current primary focus is drumset now (jazz, funk, rock, etc.), i started out drumming with various percussion (latin percussion - congas, bongos, etc & some brazilian, african, and middle eastern as well).
Describe Your Drum Kit:
recently i've been using mainly my lil gretsch bebop kit (12,14,18 & 13x6 oak snare)... 20" ride, 15" crash, 17" crash, 13" hh), hardware by various manufacturers. i also have a fusion size kit (8,10,12,14,22,14x5) and a yamaha dtxpress III electronic kit.
Favorite Drummer(s):
i have a great many that i look to for inspiration (off the top of my head and in no particular order): elvin jones, max roach, tony williams, bernard purdie, steve gadd, zigaboo modeliste, and the list goes on and on... there is a wealth of talent - living and who have passed on - who continue to shape the art of drumming today.
Favourite Bands/Musicians:
joni mitchell, herbie hancock, coltrane, miles davis, horace silver, stevie wonder, michael jackson, fiona apple, bjork, prince, wayne shorter, roy haynes, the meters, fela kuti, i love all styles of music as long as the human spirit is clearly at the center of the expression...
