Seeking Drummer in Des Moines, IA

Posting from Des Moines, IA for a Drummer who wants a clear, simple plan.

Reading is a plus; strong ears are essential. Theatre/pit-style discipline: cues, dynamics, and consistency are key. If you’ve done musicals or theatre work, say so.

I’d rather work with someone reliable than someone flashy. First step can be a short call or message exchange to confirm fit.

We can keep rehearsals efficient and time-boxed. Send your preferred genres, a short clip if you have one, and what you’re looking for right now.

We can start with two or three songs and expand only if it feels right. I’m happy to share a rough set list or references so expectations are clear.

If you’re looking for something serious, that’s also fine—clarity is the goal. If you prefer to keep it casual, that’s fine—just say so up front.

If you’re new to the area, this can be an easy way to meet musicians fast. If you’re juggling work/family, we can keep the schedule realistic.
