About Me

I'm originally from Boston, MA. -- where I attended Berklee College Of Music and studied with John Ramsay (Art Blakey, Wynton Marsalis) Skip Hadden (Weather Report), Ed Uribe (Randy Brecker, Gary Burton, Paquito D'Rivera, George Coleman, etc ). I am the former drummer for Blizzard but having moved to the great city of San Francisco in July of this year (07) have been finishing up the last record and looking for something new. We recently recorded "Root of all evil", with many special guests in 2006 - the new record should be out in '09 and is quite a departure so stay tuned.I'm pretty sure this is NOT on the new record -- maybe next one?summer
