Terreon Gully

Although Terreon Gully plays jazz with Stefon Harris and Christian McBride, to call him simply a jazz drummer would be as diminishing as to call Albert Pujols a good hitter. Terreon Gully is an amazing all-around drummer. He can lay it down for R&B and pop as well as he can rip it on straight-ahead. He can do more than just hold his own in Afro-Cuban, fusion, and gospel too. There's no box to put him in. After growing up in St. Louis, Terreon attended the University of Houston where he studied percussion and got his Performance degree. Terreon's playing is full of creativity and attitude. His solos as well as his time playing show his incredible chops and solid pulse. Although he keeps very busy with touring, recording, producing, writing, and arranging, Terreon has been Professor of Drumset and Jazz History at the University of Manitoba in Canada since 2008. Those Canadians are lucky to have him.
