  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    I can't honestly think of one moment in particular but I believe there are lots of small moments where you can feel an improvement in some area or another. The most memorable moments for me are the times I've had strong connections with other musicians on stage. You can feel that and an audience can too.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    All kinds of things. Music, books, film..anything that takes creativity to produce. Also just being inquisitive and using your imagination.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    I love the consistency from pair to pair and the range of sticks Vic Firth make. At the moment, I'm playing the Extreme 5as because they are such a great all-rounder for me. Whether it's big stages with loud instruments or small stages and acoustic music, they always help me make the sound I'm after.
