I was 7 years old when I first heard Gerald play in Brooklyn 1987!...Ill Make It was not even out yet at that time! He played Clean Inside and Spirit and killed it man!! ive been a fan every since!!
He's from Brooklyn Bro, That's New York Drummers for you. That's why I love Brooklyn Drummers, their style is aggressive yet heartfelt and passionate all woven into one. That's the East Coast Culture in a nutshell

I kinda wanted to play drums back then. But when I heard him and Jeff-Lo Davis (R.I.P.), I was HOOKED!!!
This man on drums is thee most influential drummer in the last 30yrs... the great Gerald Heyward.
You are so right.
He's the reason so many church drummers got put on! Aaron, Nisan, Brian Frasier-Moore, this list goes on. He is DRUM ROYALTY!
Facts
Now that's the cleanest that I've heard a band play together ( very nice
Have you heard John P Kee band???
Hezekiah walker don’t play my uncle use to play for him and I use to hear stories

G Hayward one of my favorite drummers yessir
Props to the drummer for letting Mr Gerald play 🤙🏻👌🏻

Single stroke rolls on the hi-hats with accents on the end gets me everytime. @2:11.
The Godfather Himself!!! One of the finest to represent the East Coast
That's a killer drum set
I enjoyed his work with James Hall back in the day.
I could be wrong, but I don't think Gerald played for JH. His nephew Eddie Heyward did tho. Eddie is a BEAST in his own right.
Quinton Wilkerson Gerald played on the first album “God is in Control “.....recorded at 170 Aldephi Street Brooklyn Ny.....
