Gruesome and Eternal

I like to think of myself as a musician who plays drums. No matter what genre it is, and I'm thankful that I get to play several, it's always about the music first! From death metal to dance/pop, whether it's on drums or guitar, or as a musician or engineer/producer, the song is king!

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Playing at Wacken last year was pretty cool. Gruesome is the first band that I started as opposed to being a hired gun and to reach that level in a relatively short amount of time felt great...and validating!

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Its really a pretty much innate thing for me. Everyday I simply wake up with the need to do something creative...be it with music or even something like skateboarding. Being an individual in a world of mass consumption.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    At first, like most any drummer you see the name in ads, the drummers playing them, and so you feel confident in the quality. When you guys introduced the 55A size, it was like a long search for that PERFECT PAIR was truly over for me!
