Influences

Sam Loeffler (Chevelle), Josh Freese (A Perfect Circle), Danny Carey (Tool), Brad Wilk (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave), Jose Pasillas (Incubus).

I learned to play by listening and playing along with songs by the artists listed above, among others. I am a fan of off-beat hi-hat and making the drums an integral part of the band sound. I play a lot of ghost notes.

EQUIPMENT

5 piece kit, 13" Zildjian hi-hats, 20" Meinl ride/crash, 14" Wuhan china, and all necessary hardware. Working on getting bigger hi-hats, alternate crashes and a couple of splashes.

I have no amplification devices (microphones/amps)
