Scott Amendola

Born: February 6, 1969

For Scott Amendola, the drum kit isn’t so much an instrument as a musical portal. As an ambitious composer, savvy bandleader and capaciously creative foil for some of the world’s most inventive musicians, Amendola applies his wide-ranging rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings. His closest musical associates include guitarists Jeff Parker, Nels Cline and Charlie Hunter, Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades, ROVA saxophonist Larry Ochs, and Tin Hat clarinetist Ben Goldberg, players who have each forged a singular path within and beyond the realm of jazz. While rooted in the San Francisco Bay Area scene, Amendola has woven a dense and far-reaching web of bandstand relationships that tie him to influential artists in jazz, blues, rock and new music

Robin Watters

Born: January 20, 1952

I am heavily influenced by 1940's Big Band swing. New Orleans both traditional and modern, along with Chicago style Rhythm 'n' Blues. My favourite drummers start with Warren Baby Dodds and then on to Gene Krupa, Louis Belsen, Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, Ginger Baker and Billy Cobham. I am currently fusing Swing and Rhythm 'n' Blues in the Robin Watters Barlles of Fun Jazz Band, this is run alongside my other band The Robin Watters New Orleans Orchestra which blends New Orleans, Blues and Funk. Both Bands are active on the European Jazz scene.
