WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

I’ve been a part of so many amazing shows and records in my life it’s hard to pinpoint exactly which is most memorable. Playing Madison Square Garden with Demi Lovato 3 nights in a row definitely is up there, headlining and selling out Red Rocks 3 times with Lindsey Stirling, playing president Barack Obama’s inauguration, the list goes on. I am just so thrilled I get to do what I love for a living and coming on 20 years in this crazy industry I am grateful for every tour and experience I get to still have.
WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

Other drummers. I find so much inspiration in drummers I look up to and my peers. I’m constantly challenged to up my game being around such amazing musicians day in and day out in the music industry.
FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

Vic Firth is and always has been the best in the Biz. Their feel, their consistency, everything about Vic Firth is as top notch as it gets and I couldn’t imagine playing another stick. I love everything from the sticks, the history of the company, to the people I get to work with at Vic Firth!
