ABOUT

Drummer who has been playing since 1974. I've played just about all different styles of music.
I also have had the pleasure of opening up for national R&B acts as well as national Christian acts. I also play with midi,sequenced tracks using a click track to stay in time to the music. I do not use any monitors or sidefills when I play. I have my own In-Ear Monitoring system that I use when I play. Currently I'm playing Roland V drums with in-ear monitors.
