Hello, my name is Nate LaRow. I live in Vermont and I've been playing drums for almost nine years. I collaborate with musicians (young and old) in my area to do local projects including playing with Catamaran, the Willie James Band and Jim Maher. Check Catamaran out at http://www.myspace.com/catamaranmusic.

 I also play in a band of my own called The Willie James Band. You can check us out at http://www.myspace.com/williejamesband. All songs were recorded (a long, long time ago) in my home studio.

I started playing snare drum in 5th grade, and for the next year that's the only instrument I played. After that, I bought a drum set for $200 and learned on that for about 3/4 of a year. Then I bought a more professional drumset that I used up until this past year. My main influences are Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Mitch Mitchell of Jimi Hendrix.

My credits include:

• 5 years of band
• 3 years of jazz band
• Numerous local concerts and showings
• Jim Maher & son James Maher
