James Gaiters, Jr. began playing drums at the age of four, influenced by his mother, who was a concert pianist and also the church organist for his father, who is a pastor. His jazz experience began through his “secret rendezvous” with Stanley Clarke, the Yellowjackets, Billy Cobham, Koinonia, and Chic Corea.
He later discovered the stylings of Wynton Marsalis, which prompted a deeper investigation into the jazz art form. During his youth, James played in various school and local bands, studying many styles of music. He then went on to college to study architecture. Musically, this move proved to be the best move of his swiftly growing career. In late 1994, James began playing in the Ohio State University Jazz Ensemble and later met Edwin Bayard, a student and tenor saxophone player at Ohio State University. This was the launching pad for one of the greatest musical unions.
His first major break onto the circuit was to join jazz trumpeter and MoJazz recording artist Pharez Whitted, with whom he has toured the country extensively.
