Jim Wilcox on SoundBetter

Former original drummer for Authority Zero, I toured the world for 17 years and released 6 full length major label albums. Today my focus is recording and producing music from my beauitiful 1600sq ft recording studio in the mountains of Colorado.

As a session drummer with many years of touring experience, I'm very used to getting things done promptly and at a very high quality. My tracking room boasts 1000sq ft with 23-foot ceilings so if you are looking for that BIG drum sound, I've got you covered. I also have a 2nd room dubbed "The dead room" that I can use for a much tighter sound if that is what your project requires.
