Dean Sudik
Dean began his music career at the ripe old age of 4. His Dad had a drum kit and showed him enough to get things started. Aside from his Dad's few lessons, Dean is a self taught drummer learning from records, videos and watching other drummers. By age 7, he played his first full night gig with his Dad's band, Starburst, and continued playing in Starburst until age 18 when he joined the band Mother Tung. His MT gig lasted from Sept 92' until Apr 93'. After a short break, Dean and MT singer Nate Behrends joined the band Dancer and returned to the road and toured until Dec 95'. Immediately after returning from touring with Dancer, Mother Tung was reformed, playing all over SE Nebraska and releasing an original CD in 98', before calling it quits in Sept 02'. Dean is now the backbone of the unruly evil known as Knuckle Deep, putting on kick ass shows and playing the kind of music he loves to play.
