brian tate, a multi-instrumentalist, is what happens when a jazz drummer

stops being nice. He has formidable musical education, to be sure, including

a degree in music performance from texas tech university, but it is in feel

and taste (things that cannot be taught) that brian makes his mark.

combining the bombast of arena rock with the finesse of jazz from a smoky

new orleans club, brian plays with chops well-oiled from years of formal

education and the fervor of a kid in his garage who has heard keith moon

for the first time and discovered his calling.
