  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Great musicians inspire me. HS school buddies, Sterling Campbell, Charley Drayton, Zach Alford, Ben Perowsky, Gene Lake, Omar Hakim sure inspire me. Drummers Elvin Jones, Brian Blade, Al Foster, Vince Wilburn, Steve Gadd my teachers John Beck and Justin DiCioccio.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Youtube and recordings are great but seek out seeing and being around great musicians in person. You can bring those experiences to your soul as well. Get a home recording set up a soon as you can! Record yourself, learn to produce and write music. Be a complete musician!

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    I like a compliment of different colors and sounds in my set up. If I have an A Ride going I'll compliment it with a Kerope and a Cluster crash. I have no favorite set up per se. The music I'm playing tells me what to reach for.
