As a child and inspired by the late and great James Brown and his late uncle, Former NBA Player & Jazz Bassist, Wayman Tisdale, TIZDALE started playing drums at the age of 8. TIZDALE, at an early age fell in love with the musical stylistics of Prince, Ella Fitzgerald, Sly Stone, Sarah Vaughn and the prodigious Miles Davis.
