  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Creating great music with talented people. I love working with new artists, young or old. Finding new music to listen to is an inspiration. My family inspires me. Traveling and playing with people from around the world.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Concentrate on your craft ... whatever it may be. Play your ass off. Don't be afraid to be different. Don't get too caught up in the 'Business' side of music. Be you and be great!

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    I have 3 different setups. I'm loving the Keropes. For the Security Project I've been using all Constantinoples. For the Marotta Brother's I've been using Avedis. All sound great. All my ride cymbals have a cluster of 3 rivets.
