Influences

I listen to a wide variety of music and musicians, but for personal enjoyment my ear is partial to cool/smooth jazz, funk and R&B. Current day musicians I attempt to expand my horizons from; Dennis Chambers, Carter Beauford, Rod Morgenstien, Van Romaine, Nate Morton, Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten, Dave LaRue, Stanley Clarke, Wayman Tisdale...to name a few.
