Biography

Where I’ve been:
Previously residing in Nashville, TN for a number of years I fell right at home in the music industry. Whether live or in the studio, I had the opportunity to record and play with some world-renown musicians. Some of these opportunities include: recording with producer Mark Miller and country recording artist Sawyer Brown and spending time on the road, touring North America professionally with Reunion recording artist Matt Brouwer.
“Travis Whitmore played drums in my band on my very first tour as a solo recording artist. During that time I was trying to find my way as a live performer and so it was crucial to have a solid foundation rhythmically. Travis brought that level of professionalism in terms of skill and work ethic that I could always count on, and remains one of the most talented and consistent drummers I’ve worked with…” - Matt Brouwer, Recording Artist
Other music projects and gigs include:
Glen Caruba’s Dance Machine, Virginia Coalition, John Mandeville, Everyday People, John Lewis Lee, LeeBeth Kilgore, Tricia Lopez, Jessica Crawford, Katie Grove Band, Spilling Dew, Todd Schlabach, Chad Hanger, Jenny Gillespie and more.
Present:
Based in Virginia and working out of my own SilverLake Studio, I am available for live and session work as well as remote recording, studio collaboration and private lessons. Whether you are a producer, songwriter, artist, or fellow drummer – please contact me to discuss availability and options.
“Travis is the consummate drummer. He knows the instrument, the craft, can play practically any style and genre, and delivers top notch recordings from his studio. If you want great drum tracks, look no further than Travis and Silverlake Studio.” - Graham Cochrane, The Recording Revolution
