ABOUT

Hello! Drummer here, I’ve been playing for about 20 years now and am looking start collaborating with other musicians. I’m trained in everything from bossa nova to death metal and don’t have any specific genre preference for the music I play, as long as it grooves! The genre I have the most experience playing live and recording is rock but would love to expand my repertoire. I’m currently in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia and have a relatively open schedule, if you’re interested in jamming with me please send a message!

EQUIPMENT

Get ready….
Kit 1
Tama Starclassic birch/bubinga 7 piece double bass setup (10, 12, 14, 16 inch toms with 2x22 inch bass drums)
Converted to electric, running sounds through a 2box drummit 3 module (you will not find a better, more realistic sounding/looking Ekit in my area, period)
Sabian quiet tone cymbals (better sounding than they have any right to, very low volume as well)
Full suite of accompanying hardware

Kit 2
Mapex Orion series in transparent purple Birds Eye maple finish (6 piece single bass kit, very elegant looking). This is a normal acoustic kit that sounds absolutely phenomenal.
I have a small but substantial cymbal collection (about a dozen cymbals all together, not counting the above mentioned sabian quiet tone cymbals) but can cover any genre of music with them.

I also have various hand percussion instruments laying around.
