Rodrick "Rod P" Pleasants
Little Rock Arkansas native Rodrick "Rod P" Pleasants began his career in percussion at the early age of twelve. He began playing for his local church, gospel groups and school marching bands. After achieving several marching band awards and performing with local gospel talent, Rodrick was heard by Minister of Music Carl Hawkins. Hawkins was over the music program at Fellowship Missionary Baptist church, one of the cities prominent churches at the time. He employed Rodrick as the drummer of the church and gave an opportunity to perform with National Recording artist Angela Spivey. Determined to maximize his knowledge about playing music and to ensure future playing opportunities he enrolled at the University at Arkansas Pine Bluff majoring in Music Education. It was there that he was exposed to and fell in love with jazz music. He became a part of UAPB's jazz ensemble as both a drummer/pianist under the direction of Dr. Robert Walker.
