Drums

Paul BivensI've been playing drums since I was a kid — played my first club gig when I was 16. After playing in a few progressive rock bands including Big Picture, I met Anna Fermin in 1994 and have been recording and touring with her band Trigger Gospel ever since.

I also play locally with Chicago Percussion Quintet, Bunkertown, Archer & Spade, and the Andon Davis Trio. When time allows, I freelance with regional orchestras, recording projects, and private teaching. I've been fortunate to have toured here in the States as well as Taiwan, Norway, and France.

I also work with Jeanie recording and playing with The Jelly Beans. She has a great connection with kids — the live show is a hoot!
