About Me

I'll be playing drums for multiplatinum artist Britny Fox's US Tour which is going to kick off in Tempe, Arizona on April 17, 2009. I'm so excited to be asked to do this. The guys in the band are great and the band sounds ready to take over today's rock radio.I've been a professional drummer for as long as I can remember and played with lots of different bands (some I'd like to forget!) The Long Island music scene was dominated in the 80s by bands like Zebra, Twisted Sister and Teazer. I was the drummer for Teazer for over ten years until we adjusted to the changing music scene and went our different ways.
I took advantage of some solo time to put out an instructional video "Visual and Special Effects Drumming" and toured extensively on a clinic tour. I played with some of the top bands in NYC including Kill City and Michael Knight and was a gun-for-hire doing fill-in gigs and studio work all over the place. After thousands and thousands of gigs played, I found my way to the band, Soulshake.
Based out of New York, we played from coast to coast, including stops along the way at Madison Square Garden, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Hard Rock Cafe. We were selected to be "The Radio Chick's" house band and were featured on her show many times.
During the small downtime between gigs with Soulshake, I kept busy doing fill-ins for The Good Rats, Paul Terror and Randy Coven, and The Eden Project.
After a lineup change, Soulshake morphed into Blackjack Betty which became a favorite LI cover band. Then Johnny Bhive, an award-winning songwriter and extraordinary showman asked us to join forces with him. Our original project with him is simply called BHIVE. Look for us playing live near you. You're guaranteed to have a good time!
