Sounds Like: Since I am a drummer recording and touring with different artists, my playing and performance caters to the artist's needs. With that said... I will be updating and changing the photos and music on my page frequently since I continue to record and tour quite a bit with these different artists. From rock to pop, singer songwriter to hip hop.....if you miss any that I've previously posted and changed, I can email an MP3 file so you can check out my playing with a specific artist......thanks for stopping by....ZAKISI edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) Record Label: Touring.Studio.Session.Tech Type of Label: Indie |
