Alex Porter, Drums and Percussion
Doing something as simple and primal as beating sticks on skins, Alex Porter worked for Erin Costello, TripALady, Jack, The Hupman Brothers, Curtis Matheson, Ask Your Sister and all kinds of jazz cats around. He is the mysterious drummer on John Main‘s latest recording, “Blues on Mainstreet“.
