Influences

Started out in early teen years trained by an original drummer for the Marshall Tucker Band and Allmon Brothers Band. Also played the oboe for the Carolina Youth Symphony and was a college scholarship student for playing the oboe. Had a brothers/friends rock cover band to play local gigs for birthdays, 4th of July, restaurants, etc. in Spartanburg, SC for several years. Played in college as part of a praise band for a mega church (~20k members). Influenced by many classic rock and roll and country artists in addition to my background in classical music.
