About Me

My name's Jackson....I'm from Portland.....I play trapset and timbales with different bands and recording projects.....I like to play rock and metal as well as funk and salsa or whatever else any given situation might require (if I don't know what the fuck I'm doing I can usually, or at least sometimes, fake it pretty well)......Right now I'm playing every week with a salsa band called Cubaneo, and I'm also playing and recording with an indie rock band called Another Cynthia......Some of the other bands and recording projects that I've been involved with include Garudas Mission, Opticollide, Delta Dawgs, Gaea, and Felicidades.......I also do freelance work both in the studio, and on stage, and I'm always interested in more work so if you need a drummer for gigs or studio time, or if want to take lessons from me, please don't hesitate to hit me up......Thanks for visiting my page.....Hope you enjoy the tunes
