About

Rob Neumann

Rob Neumann Drums - I started my professional drumming career in the mid 70's, traveling across Canada until 1978 with "TKO", a 7 piece funk band. In the late 70's I joined a rock band with a Chicago style horn section called "The Visitors". Then in the early 80's I worked with an original rock band called "Brooklyn" - spending lots of time in the studio recording its original works. "Brooklyn" started experimenting with electronic music and I therefore switched over to electronic drums during that period of time. In the mid 80's I performed in a rock band called "Bermuda", was on the club circuit and we also recorded an LP. In the late 80's I decided to change directions and go with one of my loves - jazz! Throughout the 90's I performed with a fusion band called "Melting Point" and was in a number of casual gigs with various bands in British Columbia, always finding time to play swing, latin and funk-style jazz. In 2001 I met J.T. Platt and we performed together in a jazz group called "U Tek Tik". Through J.T. I had the pleasure of being introduced to Billy Dixon in 2003 and became a member of "Billy Dixon's Soul Train Express" in October of 2003, which has been a very rewarding time in my music career.Drums - I started my professional drumming career in the mid 70's, traveling across Canada until 1978 with "TKO", a 7 piece funk band.
