   About Doug Hinrichs
Greetings, all. I've just returned from Trinidad and Tobago, where I studied some amazing Afro-Caribbean music. My guides there were prodigiously talented, kind, and generous, and I am forever in their debt for what they gave me. Much like my trip to Guadeloupe last year, my musical approach and my life in general are richer for the experience. . . . . . ANYHOW ... If we haven't already met, I'm a musician based in the NYC area. Percussion of all kinds is my voice - my life, really! I love going to work, and my work is a wonderful mixed bag. Briefly, the CRED list includes: HOUSE - Roger Sanchez, Kerry Chandler, Dennis Ferrer; JAZZ - Gary Burton, Dave Brubeck; BROADWAY - In The Heights, Tarzan, The Lion King, Brooklyn; JINGLES - Miller Lite Beer, ESPN, The New York Knicks; COMPOSING - The Young and the Restless, Burn Notice, One LIfe to Live; POP - Burlap to Cashmere, Entrain. . . . . . . . I play percussion for the orchestra of IN THE HEIGHTS, the 2008 Tony winner for best musical. Broadway, baby! . . . . . . . I also do some producing and engineering. And dig this - I've invented a few instruments that LP and Toca will be producing and selling soon. God willing, they will become part of your batterie. :) For more, please check out www.DougHinrichs.com. My solo CD, "Q&A" is available through CDbaby.com or my website. ******************************************No matter where or what I play, there's nothing like a funky, dark dive in downtown Manhattan. Here I am soloing with Richard Lee & Friends: *************************************************. . . and this video features the impossibly funky Days of Wild. Just grooving with a "congo" drum from Trinidad, a sort-of-a-djembe from the Ivory Coast, and a Ka drum from Guadeloupe (and a pedaled cowbell on the floor). This video is of my solo on Brazilian timbal and African Congas at my gig with the illustrious RFD. .. width="425" height="350">.. ..> This is me horsin' around in my studio. .. width="425" height="350">.. ..>

Hey Dougie,
Thanks for letting me know about the new video you posted. I am digging the combination of drums - very unique and original sounding mix & i like the grooves you are experimenting with. (Great solo on the live gig too!) Hope we can hang some time....

Great stuff, man!! I especially like the first of the grooves you are playing in the new video, it has a mysterious tweener feel, somewhere between the triplets and sixteen notes... I like it!!!
