JAVEN BORGWARDT
// drums
Growing up here in So.Cal., there has always been plenty of music to be heard. But it was the sounds of bands like Led. Zep., The Beatles, The Who, Deep Purple and of course The Rolling Stones that really captured my imagination. Self taught and playing in dozens of cover bands over the years has given me a great foundation on which to build on my love of music. That love includes many styles of music, but Rock & Roll is my true passion. LETS ROCK!
