Xavier Ware

My name is Xavier Ware. I’m from Beaufort, North Carolina. I’ve been drumming since I was two years old. I started in church and went on to perform in churches around my local and surrounding areas. With church, came school. Schooling allowed me to develop my music reading skills, perfect my ability in dynamics and strengthen musical techniques. I gigged throughout high school with different musicians and learned how to play jazz drums. This created the opportunity to audition and make the All State jazz band in North Carolina three out of four times. In college I learned a bit of music theory and enhanced my jazz drumming. Since college, my playing and touch expanded, and have not been the same since! Out of college, I gigged around the triangle area of North Carolina with peers and professors alike. I have also recently been a part of the band “Bilmuri”! They are allowing me to see the world! I hope my sound can continue to touch every heart, soul, and mind! I am very grateful for the opportunity to play drums in whatever setting, and I hope to be able to do so forever!
