Band to Join.

ABOUT

Veteran touring drummer from Sydney, NS, recently moved to Charlottetown, PEI. Would like to join a band in the local area for some gigs and to stay sharp playing wise. Love playing blues/funk/jazz/rock both original and covers. Played with many artists from Cape Breton including Sprag Session, The Tom Fun Orchestra, Gillian Boucher, Jennifer Roland, The Yarnells, and Buck and Kinch. Have played hundreds of gigs ranging from bars to large festivals of thousands. Have done some session studio work. Also did the Savoy theater's production of musical Chicago.
