Hello everyone. I've started playing drums when I was 7 years old. I moved to London at the beginning of 2012. I've worked/been working in the studio with producers Tony Visconti, Kevin Killen, Erin Tonkon, Ian Davenport, Steve Brown and many more. I play/played with: Rumer, X Factor UK, Daphne Guinness, Newton Faulkner etc. I regularly sub/dep at Hamilton, Book Of Mormon and Wicked in the West End.

I also produce and record drums in my studio in London: I love the sonic/production experience of drumming and how the way you play relates to how you will/can sound at the end of the signal path and production.

  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    That happened when I started to really pay attention on inner dynamics, balance and parts. I'm all about playing less notes but give them more sonic power potentially in the signal path.
  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    Definitely the vision of creating something new as well as my inner urgency to create music. Music I'd listen to is a great inspiration too.
  • Why do you choose Vic Firth?

    It's always been Vic. Just the way the wood feels in my hands, and the balance between front and rear is irreplaceable. Haven't felt anything else like that. That unique Vic Firth balance allows you to hit just in the perfect way and create a sweet sweet percussive sound out of your stroke. The quality, wood, the huge amount of choices and variations. I couldn't be with anyone else.
