South Dakota, Sioux Falls – Eli
Hello! I am Eli I am a drummer and follower of Christ. I see music as a way to open up and let everything go. With God's help that feeling is so much larger and so much more fulfilling. At the same time, while playing music for Jesus, you allow other people the opportunity to worship and feel the love of Jesus Christ. I have played drums and multiple worship teams as well as jazz ensembles, concert bands, and orchestras alike. In high school I was awarded the Louis Armstrong jazz award my senior year. I was an all state musician then as well I went to college for music performance and was in all the top ensembles at Concordia College. I also had the opportunity to perform with the United States Army Field Band. I may not have the most amazing resume or profile but I can play music. I can play whatever is thrown my way. It may take a little time to learn something or figure something out but I can play anything for the name of God. My instruments consist of mainly drum kit, any kind of percussion, a little bit of piano and an even smaller bit of guitar and maybe vocals.. I have toured. I've done numerous gigs around the Midwest. I've done some recording. I'm up for anything. One of my favorite things to remember is this: with God, nothing is impossible.
