  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    My next level moment was when I played on Jimmy Fallon with my band New Politics. It was one of my best performances to date. Plus Quest Love and the roots where staring right at us the entire time. NO PRESSURE

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    My creativity is driven by a lot. I am constantly inspired by everyday things. Nice gestures, the weather a good film composition. I find myself more and more studying incredible drummers via youtube and trying to incorporate what I see while practicing. I also compose short music loops within logic and play along with live drums. Helps practice and also be creative at the same time.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    My favorite Vic instrument is the 5B Extreme stick. I've using this stick for almost my entire career playing drums. The length and the weight of a drum have played a major role in my playing. If it doesn't feel right to me it takes away from the moment. These sticks have always felt right to me.
