John David Tims, Jr. started playing drums in a gospel choir at the age of 13 and has not missed a beat since. He has been playing professionally; locally, nationally and internationally for over thirty years. He is well known and respected around town, as "Capp", for his magnificent vocals and spectacular drum rolls. He can be heard crooning in the Soulard area, Clayton, St. Charles and Webster Groves. He has entertained crowds in Kansas, Indiana and Oklahoma. He had the opportunity and privilege to travel abroad and jam for our soldiers in the Armed Forces in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Portugal.
Capp can sway any audience with the soulful sounds of the Temptations and timeless tunes like Under the Boardwalk. His favorite blues are ZZ Hill's Down Home Blues, Little Milton's The Blues is Allright and Otis Redding' Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. He has played with some local bands, Skeet, Blue City Band, Marcel Strong, Blues Knights, Soulard Blues Band, Mojo Syndrome, and Interstate Connection Blues Band. He has made several recordings with the Blue City Band where he is featured singing his original "Blues is My Religion" on their cd "By Invitation Only" and more.
Capp is available for freelance gigs and is starting up a new band.
If you are a musician who needs a great drummer or if you are interested
in being part of a fresh, brand new sound around time, give him a call
