SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
Experienced pro drummer with excellent equipment. I am very focused and experienced in every genre with solid meter and dynamics.
Many years of experience in Denver, Los Angeles and the SF Bay Area both live and studio prior to relocating to Idaho in 2020. I love to play rock, funk, blues, alternative, R&B, you name it.
I enjoy working with talented, hard working musicians with excellent chemistry and outstanding chops. I am available for session work.
I have a nice custom built practice studio complete with equipment for full band rehearsal, etc.
Recently I have played concerts with recording artist Nick Schnebelen and Terry Robb. Currently working with Stef & The Groove out of Meridian, ID, Órale out of Meridian, ID, and Billy Blues Band out of Eagle, ID.

Influences
Too many to list. Lately really like what Lemar Carter, Chad Smith, Tal Bergman, Anton Fig, Jason Bonham and Richard Danielson are doing in various projects lately. Bill Bruford, Dave Weckl, Mike Mangini, MIke Portnoy, Chad Wackerman, Benny Greb, Terry Bozzio, Buddy Rich, Steve Gadd, Kenny Aronoff, Tommy Aldridge, Vinnie Colaiuta, Billy Cobham, Cozy Powell, Jeff Porcaro, Steve Smith, Simon Phillips and so many others influenced my direction. Listened and learned from all types of players from Taylor Hawkins to Omar Hakim (and everyone in between).
I enjoy playing all types of music, lately focused more on R&B , blues/rock oriented, or rock projects to play. Original music or covers.
