BE STRONG ---- GET STRONGER !!
With 28 years of performing experience, 10 years of teaching experience and numerous musical endeavors under his belt,
Donnie Morgan brings a wealth of credentials to the table.
Having played many different musical styles, ranging from the bombastic energy and showmanship of rock and metal---to the finesse of jazz; from the frenzied spontaneity of fusion---to the pocket-groove of funk and all points in between,
he can provide the tools necessary for any aspiring drummer to excel.
Donnie has shared the stage with Nazareth, Molly Hatchet, Nuclear Assault, Down, Crowbar, Bering Strait and Bertie Higgins.
He co-founded Acoustic Union, Lucky Henry, Deathgrip and Psychotic I and has performed with Pain Principle, Left Hand Black and Moseley Brown Band.
He even got a call from George Clinton inviting him to perform with
Parliament/ Funkadelic one evening!
As well as being an active songwriter, local performer and session player, he also has had the pleasure of touring Japan with long-time comrades and collaborators;
fusion/jazz trio Lucky Henry and rock act Sounding Rick.
