About Me

~WAVY DAVE EVERETT~

musician and longtime cleveland ohio resident, currently though i reside near houston tx, and am available as drummer percussionist (multi-instrumentalist) (WILL TRAVEL) . musical talents ranging from trapset, hand percussion, mallet to midi/sample percussion, didgeridoo among other instruments. as well my music/playing/giging experience and interests run the gammit. from weddings & outdoor festivals to sound collages & growing plants.

i would imagine i have attempted to either play or record anything that resonates, except for maybe dust and ashes.armed with a good ear and feel playing most all styles is my strong point but jamband is about my favorite.
