I.D.K. I'm just sitting here rockin on my station.

About Me

Dad. Drummer. Sound Engineer. Beat Maker. Gig Filler Inner. Remixer. Graphic Artist. DJ. Golfer. Okayplayer.
I drum. Many styles.....over the last 16 years (except speed metal or anything w/ the word "core" in it). I mostly enjoy playing dub, rock & hip hop...even country. I used to play the drums for Big Breakfast and SpaceTruck and The Vacation Gold and even bands like, White Like Tom and The Pussy Magnets and Downey's Dealer. The Truck was lucky enough to have played the first 2 ACL Festivals (before it really blew up!). We also won an Austin Music Award in 2003 for best space/jam/experimental band. I have provided electronic beats for such artists as 'Til We're Blue Or Destroy, SaxManRan, Sonia, & Grenade. My music was also featured in a documentary called "$2.13/hr." I am currently making music with the Jonny Dub Band and Kari Kuwamura. I fill in occasionally on out of town shows for bands like the Spoiled Royals (ex SteamRoller). Lately, I have been doing a lot of session work for producers Jon Carroll & Billy Leger (Elvis on Speed). Most of the songs in the player are tracks I've done in the past 6 months. Let me know if you need a beat.....or wanna hit the links. Drive for show. Putt for dough.
