Here to promote the reality series "The Next Great Drummer".
This was written and registered by Chrystal Allen in collaboration with Eric Seats, Executive Producers.
Here is the projected/tentative show breakdown:
Weekly Reality Show, much like American Idol & America’s Top Model. The show will follow Eric Seats' life as he auditions drummers from far and near in his quest to find "The Next Great Drummer".
We are looking for drummers, both male and female from 16+(the age range may change), with drum experience.
Contestants can expect serious competition. Those who succeed each round will have to consistently demonstrate improvement, quality technique and “stand-out” appeal.
In a fierce head-to-head competition, drummers hit center stage to battle it out for the number one position, performing challenging pieces given to them by judges and show producers. With eliminations looming each week, drummers will need to stand out to win.
Drummers will be monitored to see if they are able to work well with others, follow directions, and pick up new music.
Additionally, drummers will be challenged to perform for audiences from the following music genre’s in local pubs/clubs/social events: Jazz, Latin, Fusion, Rock, R&B, Blues, Gospel,Punk, Funk, Neo Soul and more.
********************************************************************************
Eric Seats is an accomplished drummer to the stars, single father of one daughter, mentor and now an Executive Producer of the Next Great Drummer. The Next Great Drummer show will follow aspiring drummers in a U.S. tour, covering contestants as they compete for the title of “top drummer” in their city.
Eric is also part of Key Beats, Inc., an amazing team of music/song writers and producers. This team was established in 1997 by both Rapture Stewart and Eric Seats. Together, they (toured) with such artists as Montel Jordan, En Vogue, Debora Cox, Jon B., Kelly Price, Rhian Benson, Missy Elliott, Raashan Patterson, Lalah Hathaway, The Soul Seekers, Raphael Saadik, Dmx, Mase, Joe, Mario, Ruben Studdard, Patti La Belle, Kelis, Tamia, Ideal, Mary Mary, And Kim Burrell
Rapture went on to be the music director for Timbaland, Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, Ginuwine and Playa. Timbaland noticed their production skills and signed them both to a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell.
Eric’s music experience both singularly and collectively have paid off in chart topping successes like, "Where My Girls At" for 702 in collaboration with Missy Elliot. This song paved the way for a management deal with Blackground Entertainment. He and his team went on to produce songs for the movie and soundtrack "Romeo Must Die".
Catching the ear of hit song writer and Destiny’s Child member Beyonce Knowles while producing a song for her, the opportunity to produce "Independent Women (Pt. 2)" for the "Survivor" record was made available. This was the original version of the song that was recorded for the movie "Charlie’s Angels".
After the success of the Survivor soundtrack, Aaliyah requested that Eric and his team work on her upcoming project as well. The result was production on half of her record "Aaliyah" which included the 1 hit "Rock Da Boat", written by Static.
Eric, along with his team have gone on to (produce and write music projects) with the following artists: Playa, 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Young Buck, Tony Yayo, DJ Whoo Kid, Travis Barker, T.I., DJ Drama, Young Dro, Jay-Z, Tweet, Nelly, Murphy Lee, DMX, Ashanti, Ja Rule, DJ Reflex, DJ Dense, Yung Joc, Diddy, Pharell, Busta Rhymes, Chingy, Fabolous, Tank, Keyshia Cole, Kanye West, Bubba Sparxxx, Nelly Furtado, Rich Boy, Soulja Boy, Lil’ Mo, D4L, En Vogue, Karen Clark-Sheard, The Soul Seekers, Mary Mary, Chante Moore, Kenny Latimore, Dave Hollister, Lalah Hathaway, Kelly Price, Patti LaBelle and Stevie Wonder.
In the future, look out for Eric’s Broadway musical Timeless.
