ABOUT

I'm a 26 year old drummer that loves to play 24/7 and is ready to get on the road with like-minded individuals if the right situation is at hand. I have pro gear and a pro attitude to go with it! I am willing to join a band that's not necessarily tour ready as long as they are very serious and want to be more than a garage band. I've been exposed to all sorts of music ever since I was young, from eastern music, to jazz, to classical. I love all types of music but really shine in heavy and progressive rock. I do however welcome anything that interests me. If you like odd time, double bass, tight grooves, syncopation and polyrythyms, i'm your guy.
