Kim Preston

I was born in New Rochelle Ny and grew up ping ponging between NY and NJ. I'm a Capricorn and I have an addiction to Extra sharp cheddar cheese. The kind of cheese that is so tangy the jabini muscles in your jaw twitch.
I first got the music itch when I heard "The Duke of Earl" that was it...I was hooked. My first band was with my best friend at the time a bass player named Russell BenAli and Peter Cantle on guitar and Joe Goddu on drums. Joe left the group and we replaced him with Jimmy Specht. He had a gold Slingerland drum set. We dug practice at Jimmy's house because his mom was a great cook and they fed us. We had alot of fun but we weren't very good. we thought we were going to change the world. I think the band lasted for 5-6 months
After we broke up high school was over and the other guys went of to college. It is at this point that I begin making some of the most bonehead choices a person can make. I wanted to go to music school but I didn't get into Berklee College of Music in Boston so my buddy Bruce and I applied to and were accepted at the JDS School of Music. Which we soon found out stood for "Jack's Drum Shop on Boylston street. The classes were held upstairs from the drum shop...Nuff said.
After several years of making some really dumb decisions I began to steady up. I played with some great musicians in some pretty cool bands. and I met some amazing people that I admired and blah blah blah, that's it. The bottom line is that it's 2008 and I have a new CD that I just released named "Redemption" I hope you check it out. You might not like every song but, I believe you will feel it.
I am all in. I am down with me...
