ABOUT

I'm a hard hitting rock drummer that can play most genres of rock from classic to modern. I was raised on the 80's 'Hairbands', but love what came before and after that era...especially the dark heavy sounds of today. I have played country at times and have no problem doing it again. Basically I just love to play. I have been on large and small stages, recorded in studios, and toured full time...the last one will probably not happen again, then again?? I am comfortable doing backing vocals and pretty good at working the crowd between songs when necessary. I don't have an ego and I'm not looking to become a rockstar and travel the world, but I would like to play out and not be stuck in a basement somewhere.
