This Northern California drummer is jazz-oriented, but he hasn't played one style of jazz exclusively. "Schnalle can go from the acoustic straight-ahead realm to the funky electric realm without losing his jazz focus or forgetting that jazz should be -- to borrow a term coined by the late jazz critic Whitney Balliett-- the sound of surprise." Alex Henderson, AllMusic.com. Celebrating new CD, Out of the Pan, due out in July. Fierce modern jazz chops...Adam Budofsky , Modern Drummer
"Fans of Mike Clark and Dave Weckl will dig this.." Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes.
