Tsombawi Knibye, Jr.

Tsombawi is a graduate of Full Sail University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Music Business
with experience in critical listening, song arrangement, music copyright and publishing. He has been
playing the drums for over 4 decades. However, he has been a drummer for over 2 decades, and has
never had a lesson. When asked, what the difference is between playing the drums and being a
drummer, he responded:

“Anyone can play an instrument, but one who works
on their craft and plays skillfully is a musician.”

In addition, he is also a songwriter, music production engineer and voiceover artist. He has also had
the pleasure of playing for acclaimed Christian artist such as Hezekiah Walker, Donnie McClurkin,
Da Truth, The Brady’s and others.

He enjoys using his gift and talent, as a drummer, to help those who have a desire to be a musician
and to help others, who are already drummers, become better at their craft. He is a firm believer in
this statement:

“Practice is what you do on your own, rehearsal is what you do with everyone else.”
