I'm currently auditioning in the Providence, RI area. Most recently, I've worked with the KokoVoko Cannibal Ramblers and recorded with The Harold Ambler Project (Acoustic Rock) and the Taren Yelle Band (Blues, Jazz, R&B & Soul). I have also hosted a Blues Jam in the Providence area. You can usually find me at all the other jams in the state, or at Chan's in Woonsocket, RI listening to all the great Jazz and Blues artists that come to town.
I attend several drum circles playing the Djembe drum in the Rhode Island area.
I've recorded three CD's with different artists and look to expand my playing and recording.
I ride an Antique motorcyle when the damn thing starts and chase as many women as I can at my age.
Music is my life and I work a 9 to 5 to pay the bills so I can play the drums.

I play Premier Drums, birch shells with one (12" X 11") mounted rack tom and two floor toms (13" X 12" and 16" X 15"). The Bass Drum is 22" X 19".
