Buddy

Buddy is the drummer for the Birds of Wisdom, and man, does he know how to keep a beat. His idol is Al Jackson Jr., and his favorite song of all time is "Ain't No Sunshine." When Buddy plays it, he disappears into another world entirely.

Buddy grew up in Detroit and loved spending time in Greektown. He still can't get enough baklava and has a piece every morning with his coffee.

As it turns out, baklava helped lead him to the Birds.

One day at Sis's Kitchen, Buddy met Pelagia and the two struck up a conversation in Greek. By the next day, Buddy was auditioning for the band.

About thirty seconds in, he had the job.

Buddy also collects watches. Nobody is quite sure how many he owns, but he loves every one of them.

Occasionally, he'll loan one to Reed for a magic trick.

Buddy trusts Reed completely.

His watches? Not quite as much.
