Drummond, Tim. Timothy Lee Drummond, 20 April 1940, Bloomington, Illinois, USA. One of the leading session players in the music business, bass player Drummond began playing R&B and rock ‘n’ roll when the airforce put his father on a year’s transfer to Charleston, SC. Returning to Illinois, he played guitar in a local band with ‘Wild Child Gibson’ of Little Richard fame, before turning his attention to the bass. Drumond toured with local attraction, Eddie Cash & The Cashiers, before playing with rockabilly singer Conway Twitty. When Twitty began to move into straight country, Drummond relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio where he worked the clubs with Troy Seals, Lonnie Mack and Roger Troy (Electric Flag), and played sessions for Hank Ballard and James Brown. He joined Brown’s band, touring with great players like Jimmy Nolen and Maceo Parker in North America, Vietnam, Korea and Africa, but eventually quit. Drummond then moved to Nashville, playing sessions for blues and R&B singers including Joe Simon, Margie Hendricks, Fenton Robinson, and country artists including Ronnie Mislap, Jimmy Buffett, Doug Kershaw and Charlle Daniels.A meeting with Nell Young resulted in Drummond playing on Young’s highly successful Harvest, and touring as part of his Straygators backing group. Drummond moved to California, where he has become an in demand session player, working with a stellar list of artists including, Young, Bob Dylan (Slow Train Coming, Saved, Shot Of Love), Ry Cooder (Bop Till You Drop, The Slide Area, Borderline), J.J. Cale (Naturally, Travel Log, Anyway The Wind Blows), Crosby, Stills And Nash (CSN), Graham Nash (Wild Tales), the Beach Boys (16 Big Ones), John Mayall, Rick Danko, Don Henley (Building The Perfect Beaşt) and Jewel (Pieces Of You). He is currently working with blues legend Arthur ‘Big Boy’ Crudup’s sons on the Franktown Blues project, and with Essra Mohawk as the KillerGrooveBand.
