In the spirit of the great , swinging big band leaders, like Buddy Rich, Count Basie, and Maynard Ferguson, my good friend and world class drummer, Ken Loomer, is the driving force behind one of the most progressive big bands of our time. This is NOT dance music folks! Sit back and listen to some great jazz, and some great drumming! This clip is from a concert at the Neel Performing Arts Center in Bradenton, Florida on December 6, 2009. A DVD of the entire concert should be available by the summer of 2010. Keep checking kenloomer.com for details.
Fabulous drumming and a great band. I love the way Ken has his crash cymbals mounted, i can't understand why so many drummers have them so high. These are the perfect height for speed and dexterity. Are there any CD's or DVD's of this band, would love to see more of them posted on youtube.
