  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    When I sit behind the drums, I rely completely on the music. It's what the musicians around me are playing that changes my approach to the instrument.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Always give your best and try to leave your ego aside when you are playing. Music is union, collaboration and respect for other musicians.
