About Me

Hey,
My name is Jamie, Im 21 from Halifax, NS. I was playing in a few bands around town and, like alot of people, I love music. Currently I live in Charlottetown PEI, I am playing with anDrea Macdonalld here on the island, she is a normal wensday night tradition at Baba's Lounge as she runs the open mic.
anDrea is currently on a solo tour accross Canada.
Im also playing with another band that has got a great funky feel.
You can check out 1 song from each of the 4 bands I had played in above in the player
I am proud to be endorsed by a Canadian drumstick company, Los Cabos drumsticks These guys are really great at what they do, They're not only making drumsticks like the pros, they have become one of the pros. Not to sound cheezy, but they really deserve recognition. Check me and some really great drummers (and friends) out in the next catalog (music stores in Canada, US, Europe).
So feel free to take some time to check out some of my friends because they have some great tallents and sounds!
