A drummer/percussionist/composer. Writing styles include classical, pop/jazz and atmospheric. Drumming styles and influences are progressive rock, fusion and symphonic.
Do you play live?
I play live within band situations; (see www.soundclick.com/ironwill as one band example.)
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet can be a Godsend, in its capabilities to exchange information, creations and technology. While I was initially anti-mp3, due to a perceived quality loss; I see its usefulness in the ease of distribution.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Probably, if offered.
Band History:
I've played in originals bands almost exclusively; for quite some time. None of them are currently presented here, as I should ask the other members first.
NEW: See www.soundclick.com/ironwill as an example of a progressive power-trio.
