Franklin Kiermyer

[KOB]

I always thought of Franklin Kiermyer as an exciting drummer with a couple of excellent CD's under his name, specifically Solomon's Daughter and Kairos. It seems this guy has disappeared off the map.

Anyone with any additional input on Mr. Franklin Kiermyer and what he is up to these days?

Wow - that brings back memories. Saw his group on a cross-Canada tour not too long after that CD came out, with Esposito and Gress. Sans Mr Sanders.
