About Me |
|
| New CD out on March 4th (Cody's Dream) Bloodshot Records.
Before "Bogarting" the microphone my History included drumming credits with Screaming Trees/Nirvana/Brandi Carlile/Neko Case/The Dusty 45's/Truly/Jim Carroll/Beat Happening/Jana McCall/Trentalange/The Hope/Mark Lanegan.
Currently I play drums with The Tripwires / Carrie Akre and Jon Rauhouse.
In 2006 The Praying Hands released 'Snake In The Radio' and toured much of the states / Canada and Europe.
We hope to do the same in 2008.
We will be appearing at SXSW this year at The Bloodshot Records showcase , hope to see you there or at another event soon.
Cheers/Peace.
