King Crimson, The Pineapple Thief, Porcupine Tree

I started playing the drums at age 6 and was inspired by my father, who was a jazz trumpet player. I turned professional at 16. Some of the folks I have played with include: King Crimson, Porcupine Tree, The Pineapple Thief, Level 42, Incognito, OSI, Paul Young, Iggy Pop and Lewis Taylor.

  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    Playing a drum solo every show with King Crimson in a tune called 21st Century Schizoid Man.
  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    Taking inspiration from unlikey sources that are outside of music.
  • Why do you choose Vic Firth?

    I was buying VF sticks decades before I was an endorser. They were the most consistent and straight sticks any drum shop had.
