  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    Recording "When You're Smiling" with Michael Bublé. There's a breakdown section, just drums and vocals. I locked in with his grove on a level I had never felt before with any musician.

  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    Toe Tapping, Foot Tapping, Head Bobbing, or Dancing of any kind. My #1 priority in everything I play is the feel and groove. When I see that, I know that I'm doing my job.

  • Why do you choose Vic Firth?

    The Legacy Brush is the perfect weighted brush for me. It allows me to effortlessly glide the brush across the drum for smooth sweeps, while getting a deep, gushy snap, especially on lower tuned snare drums.
