I've been drumming for 20 years with various bands in numerous genres, performing at thousands of shows and festivals across the United States. I currently perform with The Firewater Tent Revival, a bluegrass, punk inspired jam band from Jacksonville, FL. I also lead the experimental bands Wigeon and kungfusion, as well as filling in for drummers across the Southeast.
My Story
With two decades of professional drumming experience, I've honed my craft across a diverse range of musical genres and performance contexts. From intimate club gigs to large-scale festival appearances, I've performed at thousands of shows throughout the United States, with a particular focus on the vibrant Southeast jam band and festival scene.
My musical journey has taken me on stage with renowned artists including Col. Bruce Hampton, Charles Bradley, Jason Isbell, and Del McCoury. These collaborations have shaped my approach to drumming—flexible, attentive, and always in service of the music and the moment.
What drives me is the power of live music to connect people and create unforgettable moments. Whether I'm laying down a rock-solid groove, navigating complex jam band arrangements, or exploring experimental soundscapes, I bring professionalism, passion, and a deep commitment to the music to every performance.
