Aundrae Cornelius
DFW Area Drummer

Aundrae's (Drae's) career as a professional drummer began at Bethlehem Word Churchin 1988. He went on to develop as a musician by freelancing with several DFW area bands, picking up experience and flavor with each new addition.


Drae is best described as "a solid pocket groove maker". He instinctively drives a band throughout each song & set and is known as the key to the band's transitioning smoothly between songs while masterfully changing tempos, genres and styles.


Drae joined forces with the Cooper Jazz Project back in 2010 and has been a mainstay since then.
