ARTIST PROFILE
Hello my name is Tom Griffin jr. and I’ve been playing drums for over ten years. My passion for drums has been a fire that nobody can ever put out and a gift that I truly thank God for. I am from New York and I perform all around the big stages in the city. I was able to thankfully start out playing at church to now playing at well known places in New York such as the “Bitter End” the groove, nublu, the Drom, city winery, triad theater, and etc. I’ve played for an artist named Todrick Hall who was an American idol Finalist and I was blessed to share the stage with R&B legend Monifah. My other endorsement is with “Murat Diril” cymbal company. The original rock band that I am apart of has four members which includes the lead singer Dakota, guitarist Tico, Bass player Anthony and yours truly. Check out our EP on the website and we are still continuing to record and put out more music. I took a leap of faith chasing my dreams and I am not looking to slow down at all. I put more than 100% into my music and continue to get better day by day. I thank everyone who has support me this far!
WHY DO YOU PLAY COLLISION?
I play 5ar’s and also 5b’s depending on the style of gig I’m on and how long I have to play. But both are very comfortable. My favorite thing about this brand is that these sticks are very versatile and that I can use them for any genre I desire. Most importantly I would recommend these drumsticks to other drummers because they are very durable and last long and just feels great!!
