Duane

Drums, vocals

Duane began playing drums at the age of 12 when his Dad traded a guitar for an old drum kit. His Dad's band's drummer gave him a big stack of Beatle records and from then on he wanted to be just like Ringo from the start. Practicing for hours along with Beatle records and trying to get all of Ringo's drum fills down.
In 1980 he met Joe English who played in Wings with Paul McCartney and that connection even made him that much more of a Beatle fan. Playing drums professionally since 1979, Duane has played in many different club bands around town and played with some Nashville touring acts such as John Conlee, The Whites, Billy Joe Royal and Grammy Award winner Shelby
Lynne. He has had a great love for music (especially Beatles) for years and hope to be able to continue with his love of live music.
