I See Stars

Music was always something that I just œgot when I was growing up. I would watch DVDs of AC/DC, Green Day, Linkin Park and then play to the records on the end of my bed and imagine a drum kit where I was hitting. Now getting to tour and play around the world is a dream come true.

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    We played Pulp Summer Slam in Manila in 2017 alongside Megadeth and Dragonforce. It was my first time leaving the continent and we played to what seemed like a sea of people.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Watching videos on Youtube has inspired me immensely. From learning songs to watching Neil Peart’s drum solos endlessy, to learning about gear and finding what I like best. It allowed me to connect with other musicians and put out content for people to see. Listening to a wide range of music is always inspiring and sparks new ideas that lead to somewhere great.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    Vic Firth has been my choice of stick since day one. All my favorite bands/drummers were playing Vic Firth. They are always consistent and take brutal beatings alongside having the best team behind them anyone could ask for. When I meet other Vic Firth artists it immediately feels like we are family.
