Chris Pennie Rocks Drum Daze In Columbus
“Chris is an outstanding player,” commented Joe Hibbs, Artist Manager for Mapex Drums. “The level of talent and sophistication Chris brings to his craft is unique. His future is very bright.” In addition to Chris, Drum daze also featured the talents of Terrance Higgins, Jojo Mayer, Shelia E. and the legendary Billy Cobham. As usual the venue was filled to capacity as the event drew in excess of 850 attendees. “We attend quite a few drumming events,” said Mapex Marketing Director, Jeff Ivester, “but none are as well organized and are presented as professionally as Drum Daze. That’s a credit to Jim Rupp and the hard-working group at Columbus Percussion. They are the most detail-oriented outfit I’ve ever worked with. It’s no wonder that people come from all over the country every year to enjoy this event.”
