About Me

Currently playing drums for:CAKE/ LES CLAYPOOL/ EMT/ FARAWAY BROTHERSDrummer for life, drummer in the moment, drummer looking to make history. I think I was about 7 years old when I first saw Animal of The Muppets steal my attention away as he thrashed around the drums. Soon later I saw a drum kit for sale for $75 in the back of a Sears catalog. You know, right after the women's underwear section. I never met Animal, and it took my parents 5 more years to get me my first snare drum and lessons every Friday, but the anticipation was enough to know what I wanted to do with my life. 20+ years later I have toured on almost every continent with the bands Cake, Les Claypool, Eric Burdon and the Animals, Eric McFadden, Deadweight, George Clinton, Ottmar Liebert, Faraway Brothers. ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- -------------------------Paulo Baldi endorses Fibes Drums, Istanbul/Agop Cymbals and Promark Sticks.
