About Me

»-(¯..v..¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯..v..¯)-« Playing drums professionally my entire adult life (though "adult" might be the wrong word...). I love playing more than I care about what kind of music it is, but I am best suited for energetic and soulful music as opposed to kid stuff. I can sink my teeth into anyting REAL, written and played with passion. Currently playing with the amazing SoCal band, "Hyaline" (see top friends below). I like working with writers/players that have some idea of what they want from the drum parts, or with visionary writers that need someone to create drum parts for their songs. I hit hard, am told I have good time & feel, am fully endorsed and road-ready, and am always on time...

My Interests

Music, truth, the sensual world, animals, the outdoors, inner work... Spiritual, mental, emotional and physical fitness. Reclaiming my emotional virginity.

I'd like to meet:
