ABOUT
I moved up here from Kentucky pursuing a career in music. I have toured with a few bands such as See the World, Soulful Prayze, and Titus James. I took off school last year to do tours, so I am a very committed person and am willing to venture out and experience new things and new ideas. I plan on returning to school this fall to finish up my degree, but as always, I am available to tour!
I am a drummer for hire and have been hired out before. Currently, I am working on an album for a gospel artist by the name of Alisa Ross. I love being in the studio and would love to do records for anyone!
I also have been getting into beat making, sampling, and things of that nature. So for any Rap or R&B artists, I would love to work with you.
Any other questions you have for me or need to contact me, feel free to call/text my cell, email me, add me on , or follow me on --./hinckleydrums

Influences
I am a HUGE Carter Beauford fan. Love his feel and his creative rhythms. I also like Calvin Rodgers, Spanky, Chis Kee,Steve Gadd, Vinnie Calaiota,etc.
I love Black Gospel drumming. Its probably my favorite. I also enjoy Jazz, Pop, and Country from time to time. I do enjoy a good Rock drum beat as well.
EQUIPMENT
I am currently endorsed by Risen Drums. I haven't had a kit made yet. Waiting till I tour again. I have a Pear Reference kit. 20" kick, 12" rack, 15" floor. I do have a custom 14" Risen snare. I play Zildjian cymbals for the time being. I have a 14.5" K-Custom Hybrid hats, 15" A-custom, 17" A-custom, and a 22" K-Custom hand-hammered ride.
I do bring my kit to gigs, unless a kit is already provided. BUT I always use my own cymbals and snare.
