About me:
I am a teacher and a drummer.Right now I'm working with Judy Aron at Krogh's (Sparta,NJ).Last October I played on a webcast with Judy, which you can find on www.TonyTRadio.com This coming weekend (10/17-18) I'm doing the drum tracks for Judy's FOURTH album. On MySpace you can hear me on tracks at www.myspace.com/perfectangleband and www.myspace.com/mamsmusic. During the week I teach academics at a special ed school for emotionally and behaviorally disturbed adolescents.The school has given me the opportunity to work on integrating drumming with academics. The drum circle in my classroom is beginning to have a positive effect on the classroom culture.It's starting to get VERY interesting, and I'm looking toward drumming in different ways. In the past I've played in NYC often, a two week tour of Holland with The Steamin' Jimmies, played at the Blue Note with the Bear People Quintet, done gigs with Tony Marino,Steve Freeman, Harry Leahy,Joe Battaglia,Frank Lillie, and Steve Gilmore. I've also worked with Unsung Heroes, and a bunch of wedding and club date bands.Please take a look at my friends profiles too. They are all immensely talented musicians and artists.
Namaste
Who I'd like to meet: Deeprak Chopra, Airto, Richard Rohr, Han Bennick, Eckhard Tolle, Mickey Hart, Pharoah Sanders
