About Me

Hi, my name's Don, and I'm a strange breed of singing drummer. These are a few songs kindly contributed by some of the artists and bands I've recorded with. If you are in need of a drummer for studio or live work, please feel free to contact me.I've been playing drums for 14 years and counting. I'm currently a member of The Young'uns, a local cover band, and Closing Iris, a local heavy alternative rock band. I'm also a proud endorser (whether they know it or not) of Pearl Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Evans Drumheads, and Vater Drumsticks.I've recorded all over the Okanagan valley with some very versatile musicians. I've recorded and worked with artists such as Closing Iris, Moments, The Brock Andrews Band, Psaphonic, "Bayview", Daniel Powter, Linus, Raquel Warchol, Leanne Baillie, John Noren, Steve Merlo, Austin McAvany, Dan Rothrie, and Barb Murphy to name the most recent. I've played everything from blues and funk, to country and heavy metal. My preferred style is rock and alternative/progressive, but I'm always up to new challenges in my path to working with as many artists and musicians as possible. Thanks for checking the page out. ENJOY.
