Ned Cop, also a Louisiana native, was born and raised in Baton Rouge. Ned began playing drums at the age of 12 with the influences of the New Orleans funky, jazzy grooves. Over the course of years of drumming, Ned has developed a funky, groovin, solid pocket. His influences include Stanton Moore, Johnny Vidacovich, Zigaboo Modeliste and Chick Webb.
Ned says... "It's all about the pocket. The pulse. Drums make people move. Drums make people dance and convulse into trance-like states of hysteria. Dats what it's all about."
