About Jose

Professional musician, with more than 15 years of experience playing different styles, touring, studying and performing.
Drummer
London

I am a professional musician with more than 15 years of experience, accustomed to playing different styles (Jazz, Be-bop, Rock, Pop, Reggae, R & B, Latin, Samba, Hip-Hop, Flamenco, African Grooves, etc ...). I have traveled, studied, taught and acted in different countries, always trying to expand my knowledge and experiences to translate them later into music. I have a superior technique as a jazz musician and I have studied with great drum masters such as Daniel "Pipi" Piazzolla, Carlos Carli, Marcelo Blanco, Alberto Cabello and musicians like Carlos Lastra and Osvaldo Burucúa. I have also recorded studio albums, and was touring across european countries and participated in numerous musical projects.
