DAN BUCH
(pron. Butch)

A California SF Bay Area native, Dan began drumming at
a young age,
and soon focused on
jazz and rock styles. He performed with many projects
prior to studying at Cal State University Northridge. Playing progressive rock and rock projects has filled most of his
drumming time. Credits include HyNGE, Castles in Spain,
Everything Nothing, Jane His
Wife, BeBe Gunn, Greg Lamboy, City and numerous fill-in dates over the years. A
large variety of studio sessions
over several decades has given him experience in a
wide range of musical feels. Dan's powerful and precise
rhythms drive songs and has been described as
musical
drumming.
Dan is also a licensed Chiropractor and Qualified Medical Evaluator
for the State of California. He shares his information on injury
prevention and injury care through his website
www.drummershealth.com.
Some of Dan's major
influences include, Aynsley Dunbar,
Buddy Rich, Terry Bozzio, Bill Bruford, Larry Londin, Carl Palmer, Mark Craney and Rayford
Griffen. "There are so many excellent drummers in the
various genres; I have great respect for those who have
given so much back to the art of drumming and music; they
constantly inspire me!"

Special Thank you to

- I'm particularly impressed by the
attention paid to percussion texturing,
no doubt thanks to Buch. At times he
reminds me of Bill Bruford and at others
like Ginger Baker, especially with his
work on the toms. It just goes to show
there's no reason that the drum position
in a group can't contribute as much as
the others. - Paul Hightower
