ABOUT
Hey,my name is Jesse and I have been playing the drums since I was 3.I'm experienced in styles such as Rock, Folk, Funk, Jazz and Blues. Though I'm pretty open minded to playing any style really. I started playing folk and rock music with my father when I was about four or five. This is where I really first learned to play music.
