I’ve been shopping for a new kit for a while now (I’m very picky as I’m sure most of you are).  While I’ve been looking through catalogs and stopping by my local music store, I’ve also been researching different wood types and composites.  Birch and Maple kits have ranked high at the top of my list and I’ve been trying to find the best way to explain the differences.

Modern Drummer Remembers Jim Chapin

About Me

I started playing percussion (mallets) when I was 8 years old. I then eventually moved into concert band in middle school where I taught myself to play drumset. After middle school I played in the highschool drumline and played in several bands.... I stopped playing drums for about 5 years until I was approached by a friend to start playing again for his band. I have been playing with Blaming Tim in Atlanta for about two years now.
