ARTHUR “L.A.” BUCKNER & BIG HOMIE + RAWTWHYLAH

Arthur “L.A.” Buckner’s deep infatuation with music began at an early age. At age 3 he would practically go an entire church service without looking away from the drums. His father took notice and shortly thereafter purchased his first drum kit.

 L.A. Buckner is a performing musician, teaching artist, and producer from the Northside of Minneapolis. He holds a Master’s degree in Percussion Performance from McNally Smith College of Music, and is an instructor for the MacPhail Center for Music, and the St.Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists. Currently, LA serves as co-host for the two-time Webby award winning PBS music education YouTube series “Sound Field”.

In August of 2020, LA took iTunes by storm with the release of his project BiG HOMiE, which reached the #1 Jazz position within 24 hours of its release.

 His artistry is full of energy, excitement, culture and excellence.
