About Me

Drummer formerly on tour with Gretchen Wilson. Other artists include: Colt Ford, Ty Herndon, Doug Stone, Bobby Pinson, Steve Holy, Jeff Carson, Daryl Singletary, Sarah Johns, Corey Smith, and Rebbecca Lynn Howard. Recorded tracks for Doug Stone along with numerous demo and master sessions for independent artists in Nashville. Live performances recorded for Gretchen Wilson’s "All Jacked Up" dual disc and on the DVD Gretchen Wilson "Undressed". "Highlites" of the few years include taping the "All Jacked Up" video, playing with Gretchen Wilson and Charlie Daniels for the Superbowl XXXIX pregame show, being featured in a full page ad for my endorsement company Mapex drums in the nationally acclaimed magazine "Modern Drummer", performing for the Clive Davis 2005 pre-Grammy party, playing drums with Hank Williams Jr. (Bocephus himself) on "Family Tradition and Rowdy Friends" at the world famous "Tootsies Orchid Lounge", and playing the songs "Barracuda" and "Crazy On You" on national tv with the queens of rock and roll...Ann and Nancy Wilson of HEART.Currently I am on the road having a blast with the "hick-hop" man himself...Colt Ford! (CMT video "No Trash In My Trailor") His brand of country style "rap" is drawing crowds and making a statement on the ever changing Nashville music industry. If you haven't checked him out, I urge you too. The music is fun, clever, and frankly his show is a party!!! Keep an ear out. You'll be hearing more from this guy and hopefully me too! Listen for his new "remix" of the Montgomery Gentry song "Roll With Me".I am also staying busy doing sessions and playing around town. I am still involved with the 7 piece powerhouse southern rock band "Smokey Lonesome", husband and wife duo Thompson Square, new comer's from San Diego "Married By Elvis", as well as the "rock god Crazy Bitches" (their words not mine) Stacie Collins and Tonya Watts. I am also proud to say that I'm involved with my dear friends from WI.."Out Of Ether". There are great things happening there with our song "Don't Let Go" which I co-produced and someone very close to me performed. The song has been involved with the Global Campaign against cancer!!! Please check it out! Better yet....Check all of them out in my top friends. Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you on the road!
