    Pat Tomek has been a part of the Kansas City Music scene for decades.  When he is not drumming for the internationally loved band, The Rainmakers, Pat spends his time producing, engineering, recording, (and playing on) some of Kansas City's most talented artist's projects.  Pat discusses the early days of the Kansas City pop music scene and drumming for The Secrets and the 4 Skins.  We cover a lot in this interview: dinosaurs, Rush, drum machines, Leonard Cohen, and much more.  On a side note, I have seen Pat perform many times, his rock-solid drumming is the perfect balance of playing for the song and making things "feel" perfect.  I had a great time getting to know Pat.

Drummers and Beyond,” Moore says. “I want to give them the acknowledgement they deserve and pay tribute to the area I love.”
