| Influenced by my father, mother, and grandmothers, I picked up an instrument at an early age. Okay, not literally since my first instrument was the piano. I started playing at age 7 and took lessons for a few seasons. In 5th grade my folks bought me my first drum set, and in 6th grade I joined the East Middle School Orchestra and started taking percussion lessons from Mr. Humbert. I was playing timpani, chimes, glockenspiel, marimba, snare, bass, vibraslap, and other percussion instruments by the end of 8th grade. | |
| By the time I reached high school I was ready to join a rock band. By the time I was 26 I had played at over 250 venues with a dozen different bands. Below you can find some of the recordings that we have made over the years. Enjoy the songs below. I hope to add new songs that I compose and perform myself over the next few years. |
