Nathan "Natrix Ricks

        Hello! I am Nathan Ricks, the Founder, and Owner of Natrix Entertainment LLC. I am a Drummer/ Music Director/ Arranger/ and Programmer. I am recent Berklee College of Music Graduate (2017), my major concentration in Music Performance 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 artists: Lionel Richie, BooBoo Stewart, Justine Skye, Arin Ray, Disney Channel and many many more. I'm 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.

        In addition to my extensive drumming experience, I am highly proficient at reading, improvising, composing and music production.  Please consider me for any Pop, R&B, Gospel, Film, and Studio gig opportunities. I am interested in any production-related internships and/or full/part-time positions.  I am willing to travel, as well as work within my local home base (Southern California). 

       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.” I can provide any professional references upon request.
