I grew up on Long Island New York and my music journey began at the age of 8 years old. I inherited an am/fm radio from my parents and lost myself in freestyle music. It was the first style of music to really capture my imagination and make music an art form, rather than just something playing in the background of my life. By 11 years old I started to embrace everything from metal to R&B, dance music, rock, and pop. All of this great exposure to my parents music and my sister and brother introducing me to the music they listened to gave me an incredibly strong music foundation to influence my future as a musician and song writer. Before I was a drummer, before I became a song writer.....I was, and will always be a listener first. My ultimate goal is to work side by side with artists, developing new music and doing session work on the drums.Band/artist history
I started playing drums at the age of 17. Within a year I was part of a four man group doing original 90's style alternative rock and recording an EP. By 22, I recorded my first full length LP and the rest is history. I began song writing in 2001 and I have always loved telling stories through music. I wright mostly R&B, but have on occasion written alternative rock and acoustic rock songs as well.Have you performed in front of an audience?I have performed hundreds of times on stage. Playing Manhattan always made for great shows and great memories.
