   About Artgr
My name is Arthur Vint and I'm a Tucson, Arizona based drummer, percussionist, and musician currently living in Brooklyn, New York. I’ve held the drum chair in many different ensembles, playing jazz, rock and roll, country, afrobeat, and whatever else. I also had some “classical training” way back when...whatever that means. I am a proud Lame Deer Records artist.

In New York I can be found performing regularly with the Jazz Band Classic, Modern Medical Miracle, Mike Wilkens Quintet, and Matt Panayides Trio, among others.

In Tucson, I can found playing with Andrew Collberg, Gabe Sullivan, Jameson Clyde, Naim Amor, Matt Mitchell Trio, A Very Large Ensemble, The Ad Nauseam Project, The Arizona Roadrunners, and my own group The Afrodelic Stegosaurchestra.

I can be heard on the following recordings:

If I Were A Vacuum, I’d Suck You Into a Bag - artgr - 2004
Yellow Man - artgr - 2005
The Afrodelic Stegosaurchestra - Afro Steg - 2006

I do some other crap, but I forgot and you don't care anyways. I just like music a lot. Tell me what you think of mine.
