I'm a multi-instrumentalist but most experienced as a drummer. Have played, performed, recorded with multiple acts over the last 25 years. Although I always have 1 or 2 things on the go, I love music and am always open to new opportunities and experiences and challenging myself to get better as a songwriter and performer.

Influences

Rock mostly - a wide range from folk, fusion, alternative, grunge, classic, and hard/heavy or progressive. I tend to like music more for its message and songwriting than I do for playability. My favorites include Matthew Good, Neil Young, John Mayer, Pearl Jam, I Mother Earth, Radiohead, Royal Blood, The Blue Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Gorillaz, and so so many more.
