Having been heavily exposed to music and the arts since early childhood, I am so grateful for my late mother who initiated my formal musical training in elementary school with piano lessons, but drums and percussion became a greater calling. My private instructor trained me as a Jazz drummer. The school band teacher required me to study Jazz, Symphonic and Pop music. The early 80's for me were filled with the sounds of Art Blakey, Coltrane, Mingus, Run DMC, Man Parrish, Fela Akuti, Stevie Wonder, Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Terry T. and B.B.
