About the speaker

Born in Buffalo, New York, drummer David Jonathan “Teaspoon” Hulett began his music career in the late 90s. A graduate of the Buffalo Academy of Visual and Performing Arts, he is one of the most respected, technical drummers of his generation. His articulation and attention to detail has given him the ability to adapt to many genres of music: from Rock, Pop, Jazz, and R&B, to Country, Folk, Blues, Celtic, Latin, and World Beat.

David has performed at Disney World and travelled the globe, playing in 30 countries. At just 37 years old, he has opened for various artists, including En Vogue, EPMD, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Robert Cray. David has toured with a host of artists, including The Michael Jackson Tribute Tour 2010, The Black Eyed Peas, T.I., Kendrick Lamar, Sun Ra Arkestra, Dr. Lonnie B3 Smith, Grammy Award Nominee Eric Roberson, Phylicia Collins of The David Letterman Show, Bobby Jones of BET, Joseph Wooten and Grammy award-winning pianist George Caldwell.

David currently is the band leader for David Jonathan & The Inner City Bedlam delivering messages of love and social justice reform through musical landscapes. Their upcoming freshman release of “400” is set to release on Oct. 29th 2022.
