David Strayer, an incredibly versatile and extremely musical drummer. His keen understanding of the sensibilities needed to bring to life so many different kinds of music, like a hard hitting rock tune, a controlled pop song, or a jazz flavored instrumental piece, makes him the drummer of choice for so many people. His musicality, knowledge, and authenticity with the drums makes his voice strong and unique. He knows exactly what is needed to bring the music to its highest point.

Howdy there! Im Michael Leasure and I am the touring and recording drummer for Walter Trout for over 8 years now and have also played with Edgar Winter, Buddy Miles and many other artists. I have known David Strayer for well over 20 years now. We have worked closely and played together in many diverse and challenging musical environments. He is absolutely hands down one of my favorite drummers. He has his own and inimitable style and a great work ethic. He could play anything with anybody anywhere ... a monster among us.

Song demonstrations in various states of disrepair mostly envisioned for FUZZARD, the supremely serviceable music-making outfit that stumbled around L.A. in the wee days of the 21st century. Archives from a "country-western" past and speculations for a genre-fuzzy future. Originally intended as a public dustbin for old ideas, each playlist houses tunes of similar era or origin (see individual descriptions for more vague explanations).

May these land on your ears solely as scenes from a sonic sketchbook, varying in performance and production value, neither of which was the primary focus at the time of their recording. Hastily mixed, hardly EQ'd and wholly unmastered. That said... enjoy the adventure!

Name note: Since these demos were largely created by me, myself and a rotating troupe of Garageband drummers, I don't wish to implicate the actual and awesome members of the original FUZZARD in the suspect execution of these mock-ups. I have now filed these under the nom de plume Doc Fuzzard with a likely transition to "Fuzzard's Ghost," as I move on from good-natured but ultimately culturally-appropriated twang that tinge many of these tunes.

Shallow People is an experimental instrumental group hailing from Los Angeles. They currently have released three self-produced albums.
