ABOUT

I have been playing drums for over 30 years both professionally and for personal enjoyment, playing everything from old school blues to modern dance music. I have powerful stage presence and sensitivity.

I have been fortunate to be hired to play live for many different acts in local tours and shows. I have appeared live on the radio backing Bryan Cowsert on the air. Also have experience with professional cover bands for corporate engagements, weddings and private parties. I prefer to play music that people can enjoy and get up and dance.
