I play all kinds of music with all kinds of bands. No matter what you're looking for, I can help (and if for some reason I can't, then I'll tell you who can!). I also teach drums privately, both in-home and in-studio. For booking or drum lessons, please call anytime.

Tue 07 Sep 10 / 7:00pm-10:00pm -- Acme Jazz Company @ The Shorewood

This bold new big band kicks serious butt, and this club has a great stage! Expect a little more groove than you'd find in most big bands, and special guests like Arne Fogel on vocals. All of the arrangements come from band members, most prominently Dave Rasmussen and Bob Parsons. The second best part is that the show is FREE. The best part? The music, of course! Great food, too, so eat up!

The Zebra Mussels are at it again -- plenty of Tom Petty, The Police, Alanis Morrisette, Bonnie Rait, Sheryl Crow, AC/DC, Aretha Franklin, The Doors, Paul Simon, Steely Dan, gin Blossoms, Pat Benatar, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Beatles, Rolling Stones and more to go around!!!
