Nashville drummer, programmer, and drum tech

About Me

Hi, Im Nate. I am a drummer in Nashville, and im at your service. I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago where i discovered a love for the drums. I graduated from New Trier High School (and one of the top high school Jazz programs in the country) in 2003 and moved to Nashville to further persue music at Belmont University where i studied drums with Chester Thompson (Phil Collins, Frank Zappa etc), Derico Watson and Todd London. I just graduated with a degree in Commercial music and Music technology and now im playing drums in the real world. Currently I play with my band isHesafe, my great friend Jaclyn James, and i am the touring drummer for christian rock band Mikeschair (Curb Records) who are also my very good friends. I love music and i love Nashville, so if you do to, lets be friends or something.
