Description

Hi! I've been playing drums for 20 years. I love Coltrane, Art Blakey, Mulatu Astake, and heavier stuff like Mars Volta.

I also have an electronic drum pad (SPD-S) for live samples and electronic drum sounds. My style is versatile and dynamic: I like dancy tribal grooves and play unique rhythms with some Latin flair, but am always willing to play simple and steady for the crowd to groove to -- whatever serves the song! Open to constructive feedback and growth as a lifelong artist.
