Hello! I am Nathan Ricks and I am a Drummer/ Music Director/Arranger and the Founder and Owner of Natrix Entertainment LLC. A recent Berklee College of Music Graduate (2017), my major concentration is Professional Music with a Minor in Music Production. Born & raised in the Motown (Detroit, Michigan) my principal instrument is the drum kit. I've worked with several distinguished artist such as: Earl Klugh, Victor Wooten, Lionel Richie and I was the youngest performing member of the Detroit Civic Jazz Orchestra (under the Maestro Directorship of the Jazz Patriarch – Marcus Belgrave), a seasoned Gospel musician who plays a diversity of musical genres and winner of multiple drum competitions, band awards and during my tenure at Berklee – I’ve also supported new artists in a Music Director role. My professional and philosophical desire is “to ensure that everyone that hears the music I play will experience the optimal pleasure conceived when what you hear frees you to express yourself.
