Lou Mars Pro Drummer
I am currently based in Chico California, however my Passport is up-to-date and I am available for Worldwide, National, or Statewide Pro level act(s) to support. I have extensive studio, tour and showmanship experience. I have a steady base residual income and capable of traveling to support less advanced Southern/Northern California or Nevada heavily gigging acts. As a result please do not allow my distance to impede your decision to offer me an audition for your band project.
My style is described as a show drummer. Capable of supporting most types of music but specializing in Rock, Indie, Alternative, Metal and Funk. I'm easy to get along with, like to laugh and keep it fun while taking my role seriously when on stage or in the studio.
My drumming is currently being featured in the Dixon Drum your way to Hollywood special airing on the Comcast on demand A&R Channel. You can also view the show at loumarsdrums.com page. A list of my media coverage is provided below.
