Band Members: I was Born and raised in Jacksonville florida learning how to play music in church while my father and his sisters were the musicians of the church and my grandfather and grandmother were on the board that built and ran the church. Later I started singing in the choir and after 1yr I got bored and I wanted to play something my dad was already teaching me piano so I wanted to play drums also but at the time in a southern church drums was considered holy whatever that was so naturally I gravitated towards it more which ultimately led to a 15yr career.I’ve had the pleasure of touring with different blues artist such as William Bell, Bobby blue Bland and had the opurtunity to perform with prince on his 1999 jam of the year tour and most recently just wrapped up a tour with Barry Manilow in december 07 on his Music and Passion Tour with special guest opening act Sunset Strip where we currently perform in the same casino at the Las vegas Hilton Tue-sat. www.lvhilton.comIm currently also working with my first original band that we formed called YellaphunQ and we perform every sunday in Las vegas performing Original music and curently shooting a reality show pilot as well as footage from the Barry Manilow tour and different performances around Las Vegas.I am truely living my dreams right now some people say dare to dream I say I dare u to try to persue your dreams.
