ABOUT

I am a kit and hand percussion drummer and tenor singer.

I play regularly with the Worcester music awards winner the Tony Soul Project (TSP).

I am also a composer for the group
Ensemble Davuli. A middle eastern fusion music group. You can find our CD under just about any music platform including Spotify, CD Baby, Amazon etcetera.

I am also the drummer for the group called Out Past Ten playing danceable rock hits from the 70's and 80's. We are in search of a guitar player and bass player. See the Bandmix profile "Out Past Ten" for more information.

I have worked in and out of the Worcester area, RI and Boston in several working and popular and music award winning rock/pop bands such as Mass Octane, the Superchargers and Interstellar.

I've done fill-in work with the Tony Soul Project, Vivi & da' Funk, Clamdigger, Your Mother, XRB etc.

I play a huge variety of hand percussion and stringed instruments. I am always looking for musicians to jam with.

Gigging bands are always welcome if you need a fill-in.
Please email me if you need a fill-in drummer or need tracks added to your music with either drums or hand-drums.

I also released a CD under the group name Ensemble Davuli in the genre of middle-eastern fusion.
