“East End” is a part of a dying breed, a true honky tonk man in every sense of the word. Starting his playing career at the tender age of 13, he often says he feels like he was born in a bar and often jokes that his mother weaned him on Crown Royal and cut his teeth on a pool ball rack. One of Eddie’s main influences was James Brown and his drummer. Studying his drummer(s) was always watching and listening to James and accenting his moves. Eddie says he is a graduate of the Big Ears School of Drumming because he is always used to the groove. Eddie calls himself a meat and potatoes drummer, nothing flashing, and nothing that is going to make you go wow but a groove you could drive a truck through.

Eddie says the most important thing in drumming is always know where the one is. Eddie has played with all the unsung heroes throughout the South. And mention his name in most any roadhouse or honky tonk and they will have an Eddie story.

Eddie has matured and outgrown his bad boy image and came out the other side a bad man. Eddie is sure to evoke an emotion, mad or glad, as long as he gets you on your feet, he doesn’t care.
