About Me

....

In the Spring of 1998 Scott "Skyntyte" Free came to me and said, "I've got some guys that want to put together this Funk-Rock thing, and I need a powerful player on the skins." My first reaction was to laugh, but knowing Scott I was interested enough to check out what they were doing. Needless to say I became the Drummer/Vocalist for Munkeez Strikin' Matchiz. Everyone was dedicated... to not only great musicianship, but putting on a show that left fans awestruck!! My past in music covers almost everything in the musical spectrum. Classical, Jazz, R&B, Rock, Gospel; and yes Country........... My thoughts and feelings are very simple. To be thought of as a great artist appreciate other artists and learn from their journey; it's a trip no matter how you look at it!!! Peace ~ Shadow
