ABOUT

I have been playing drums and percussion for about 15 years. I am always researching different styles to incorporate into my repertoire, as of late I have been working on various rudiment applications. My singing chops are very limited it's something I enjoy doing but lack technical skill in.

Influences

Pretty much everything ever recorded, I have a very diverse music taste and am influenced by most everything I have an ear for. If I had to select key music influences I would start with the classics like Bonham and Moon. I have a super big drum crush on Phil Collins, the guy is a legend. In terms of groups I love Queen, Kings of Leon, Michael Jackson, Van Morrison, Joe Bonamassa, Eric Clapton, ZZ Top, Three Doors Down, Matchbox 20, P!nk, Michael Buble, Radio Head, U2, Blue October (all time favourite band), Bruno Mars, Daft Punk, Lauryn Hill, Bill Withers, Everything recorded at Hitsville USA in detroit (AKA Motown).

EQUIPMENT

7 Piece Ludwig kit from the 80's rack mount set up. 1950 Slingerland Snare drum. Meinl 14" hi-hat, 18" Crash, 21" ride, 12' splash, a couple of no name garbage cymbals that I just use for jamming, and filling out empty cymbal stands. They may lack a name but they sound all right and are great for practice.

Gon Bops Acuna series, special edition Cajon

12" Djembe from Mali
