Chuck Bergeron
I was fortunate to be born and raised in New Orleans, one of the richest musical and cultural cities in the world – also the best place to eat in America. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Jazz Performance from Loyola University, a Master’s in Studio Music and Jazz from the University of Miami, and a Doctorate in Higher Education Leadership from Nova Southeastern University. I also attended Louisiana State University and the Eastman School of Music.
John Yarling
John Yarling attended Florida State University (classical percussion), University of Miami (jazz performance, drum set) and has taught general music and percussion at North Broward Preparatory Schools, and established a percussion program at the Florida Youth Conservatory.
His flawless musicianship and commitment to his art make him the drummer of choice for many South Florida performers such as Ira Sullivan and the Inter-Outer Continental Quintet, The Shack Daddys, South Florida Jazz Orchestra, Brian Murphy Trio, The Nicole Yarling 4-Tet, the Jeff Taylor Band and Diane Ward. He is at ease in playing in many styles including Modern Jazz Blues Funk and Rock. In past years he has performed with jazz luminaries Mose Allison, Sonny Stitt, Nat Adderley, Lou Donaldson, Jaki Byard, Jimmy Forrest, ark Murphy, Mike Stern, Larry Coryell, and Dave Liebman as well as rockers Mick Taylor, Nicky Hopkins, and Bobby Keys (The Rolling Stones). H has recorded with Ira Sullivan, Curtis Fuller, Pepper Adams, Joe Williams, Ernest Ranglin, Kevin Mahogany, and most recently Pink.
