About Me



a..http://www.vater.com/education/techtalk/CraigKrolicki/ind ex.cfm This is the link to my drum tech article.I am originally from New Castle PA. I am a drummer/percussionist/drum tech/teacher. I started playing out at age 15. I appreciate and have played many styles of music from rock, blues, oldies, country, funk, R & B, jazz and even classical. After high school, I attended the Dana School of Music (Youngstown State, OH) and received a BA in Music Education . There I had the privelage to be a sub percussioninst in the Youngstown Symphony for 3 years during my college days. In August 1997, I moved to Nashville. I have had the privelage to work (drum) with some artist such as Vern Gosdin, Tammy Cochran, Gail Davies, Jeff Carson, Hank III, Steve Hill and the Nashville Palace band and my favorite, Kellie Coffey. On Kellie Coffey's gig we toured with George Strait in 2004. Currently, I am playing a different role in the music business as a drum tech for Rascal Flatts. Just because I am teching I am not going to stop drumming. If you need a drummer for studio, club dates, showcases, artist gigs, etc. please don't hesitate to contact me as for I still want to play some more gigs when I'm not with the Flatts. Thanks for stopping in and hope to work with you or see you soon...

My Interests

Music (drumming). being by the water (ocean, lake, etc.) into the outdoors (fishing,hiking,biking). Like sports (golf, bowling, football, b-ball,v-ball etc) and into working out I like to hang out with friends and also to hear good bands at the clubs. Traveling and vacations awesome too. Other than that I try to go with the flow. I can sit at home and veg as well.

Music:
