DRUMS
For the latest drum videos go to my Facebook page (Bob Wick and Bob Wick Music).
Experienced and diversified professional drummer and percussionist who has played all genres from Rock, Pop, Motown, Dance, Jazz, Country, Religious and Big Band to the most recent hits of today. I have played weddings, Corporate and Social events, Clubs, etc. Notable bands from the past and present:
The Stone River Band (1975-1979), The Bottom Line 7-piece band (1979-2015), Dear Jimmy Band & Follow the Sun 6-piece band.
I play IN THE POCKET and SOPHISTICATED SYNCOPATED RHYTHMS that add exciting embellishments to all songs so that no two songs sound alike. I listen to the other musicians and complement their performance with artistic elements that are appropriate and creative.
Drum Set: Gretsch Catalina, Pearl Rhythm Traveler with Roto Toms.
Roland Octapad: I utilize this electronic percussion instrument to provide a vast array of sounds. In addition to using it as a drum kit, I also incorporate many percussion sounds spanning the globe from Middle Eastern, African and Asian sounds that also include synthesizer and bassist notes to rain stick, dulcimer and steel drums. I use the Octapad while I play guitar and sing as a solo artist and in duos and trios.
I have appeared on Cleveland FOX8 Morning Show 6 times and on a radio hour at Lakeland Community College Lake Effect Radio.
