ABOUT

I am a South Florida native who has been playing drums for 28+ years. My genre listing is pretty broad. I can play mostly any kind of style and if I'm not familiar with a style then I will put in the work to learn it. I can read music and have recorded on a few projects. If you'd like more information about me please do not hesitate to contact me and I will gladly respond to you as soon as possible. Thank you.

MUSIC

CALENDAR

Past Events

Live music at Clermont Brewing Company with Steven Cardwell and the Neon Drifters. Great food, great music, and great staff.

I will be performing at the restaurant Kitchen 305 in Sunny Isles Beach with the top 40 cover group Debbie Taylor Band. We'll be doing 2 sets. Wednesday night special all you can eat lobster for only $35!!! I'm so down.

Performing with local musicians/friends of mine near downtown Miami for an art presentation. Should be a lot of fun seeing on how most of the music will be improvised on the spot.

I will be performing with a group called Midnight Kahuna at Havana Group Cigars Club in Miami Lakes from 9pm-10pm. $5 cover fee if you have a costume and $10 if you don't. Should be fun.
