Duane Howard – drums:
Duane is a drummer and percussionist whose musical journey has never been confined to a single genre. Playing drums since the age of 12, his foundation was further shaped by the precision of drum corps-style marching percussion and the movement, showmanship, and rhythmic creativity of HBCU drum sections, where he served as a drum section leader. His musical world expanded through R&B, funk, and dance music before pushing into the harder edges of classic rock, metal, alternative, and grunge during the 1980s and 1990s, including participation in the Black Rock Coalition. Along the way, seemingly different musical worlds began to connect -- discipline from marching percussion, movement from the HBCU tradition, pocket from R&B and funk, power from rock and metal, freedom from jazz, and groove from Go-Go. These aren't separate musical identities for Duane Howard. They're all part of the same beat.
