ABOUT

Originally a drummer/vocalist from alt rock bands in Connecticut (Static Nerves, The Future I Dream Of), I'm looking to get back into a new scene with new people and new ideas.

I mostly play metal, post hardcore, metalcore, pop punk, easycore, alt rock, and hard rock. I have plenty of time logged in the studio and playing to a click with backing tracks. I also have a set of IEMs, but no wireless pack (I plugged directly into the interface and split the audio to front of house).

Sponsored by SJC Drums and SoulTone cymbals. I have moderate touring experience and playing shows out of state, with moderate studio experience as well.

My goal and lifelong dream has always been to see the world and share the art I help to create. From the process of writing music with my friends, to the joy of playing my heart out, I love it all. I currently live in an apartment with very little ability to practice, so no practice space is available. I am, however, willing to commute and bring whatever gear is necessary.
