A. Christopher Johnson

Despite being successful in multiple genres, hitting the studio with talented musicians and bandleaders, and swinging hard to original Hard Bop Jazz, my absolute favorite Jazz sub-genre is priority, in the great studios of Westchester County New York City.

I keep my skills sharp, devoutly staying familiar with all Jazz standards, and keeping up with my "real'" Hip-Hop breakbeat chops, of the 80's & 90's, that I slickly incorporate into my Hard Bop swing, giving my drum sound a unique flair.
