ABOUT

LEDGEDAWG is my profile name on Instgram if you don't have a premium profile to reach out. Or hit me up through YouTube profile JBLEDGER

Been taking a break from bands and gigging since September 2024. Would get back into music for the right band/ singer. Holding out for the right fit. I play drums, cajon, percussion, bass guitar & a bit of rhythm guitar. Would love to do another acoustic duo/ trio playing covers at pubs. I did that this past Spring /Fall. Free beers and a bit of extra cash. Unfortunately the singer guitarist I was with had a tendency to cancel gigs and jams last min so I had to move on. Would also be into playing drums or bass if I dig the music. I'm leaning towards covers but if I really dug the singer / songs I'd consider originals. Currently 45 and I've been playing music live for over 25 years. I've toured Canada and shared the stage with many big acts.

I Have transportation and work full time. Prefer to jam at my place if I'm playing drums so I don't have to tear down/setup for practice. If I'm playing Cajon I don't mind driving to jam. I work in Aurora and live in Whitby. I can jam/ gig on week nights and weekends.
