About Me

I'm a professional drummer from Atlanta, GA. I currently perform with numerous acts in Atlanta playing all styles of music from Jazz to Metal. I play about 200 nights a year or more and love doing session work. I also enjoy teaching lessons, doing drum clinics and talking shop. I believe in working on chops for chops sake but personally enjoy the essential groove delivery when it comes to my playing style. The groove makes the booty shake...not the solo. I play with intense passion like every show is my last no matter the gig situation. I love meeting people at gigs and on the road. Hope to see you soon! I endorse Vic Firth drumsticks, Meinl Cymbals and Percussion, Pork Pie Drums, and The Grip Peddler, and rock Drumshoes (www.drumshoes.com). I also uses DW Pedals and Hardware, and Aquarian drumheads.

"Birth" by Voices From The Shelter now on my page

All of the drumming is done in one take and it's truly a musical spiritual journey for me. We hope to press vinyl of our material once everything is mixed and are looking to collaborate with other artists. Our new track "Birth" can now be heard here on my page and… Continue
