Drums and Percussion

Good drums are the foundation of any great recording. A well-tuned kit, played with precision and feel, jumps back at the drummer and anchors every other instrument in the mix.

Tools of the Groove

Finding the right Drum sound includes more variables than most other instruments, which can easily spread a drummer too thin. Charles Godfrey started his career as a studio drum tech/engineer and now has 33 years of experience in performing, writing, producing, and tuning drums. Working with most all genres from metal to different Latin styles, he will seamlessly bring his considerable experience to your record.
