MIKE:
(A.K.A. "The Lumberjack") is the undisputed king of the backbeat behind JuNkShAkEr and a huge part of the bands unique sound. He has literally been playing drums......(or as some call it) "Whack A Mole"...his entire life. What originally began in a grade school marching band culminated into a stint in Vanguard Drum Corps (snare) and later touring in a well known speed metal band from the Bay Area. A firm believer in the power of the paradiddle. His sheer energy and power always draws attention wherever he plays. Aside from those obvious attributes, it's his ever steady booty shakin' beat that keeps the band steamrolling forward! Watch out!
