West African polyrhythm for modern drumset players
For drumlines, jazz majors and working drummers. Reggie translates djembe and sabar rhythms into pocket-centered drumkit mechanics, oral phonetics and hand technique.
Rhythm, geography and diaspora lineage
Hands-on workshops connecting music, West African history and social-emotional growth. Reggie brings a set of hand drums straight into gyms, community halls and arts spaces.
Solo percussion sets or full ensemble
From dundunba bass polyrhythms to tight Memphis soul breaks. Available as a featured artist with touring bands, for commissions, or leading his own ensemble.
Memphis kit pocket with West African texture
Send rough mixes, stems or a click guide. Reggie cuts drumset and hand percussion tracks and delivers dry multitracks plus a stereo drum mix.
What Reggie brings to a clinic or session isn't a simulation. Every masterclass features live demonstration on carved shells, rawhide heads and hand-hammered cymbals, tuned to articulate fast syncopation.
