At age 9, I received my first drum set from my grandpa, it was a classic 1950s Ludwig kit. From there the passion to play the drums began. I have studied drums and percussion in Canada and the US and enjoy playing and listening to many different genres of music. I have provided groove and feel for orchestras, jazz, funk, church, and rock bands on stage, in coffee houses, and in studio settings for over 30 years. The challenge to "play what is right for the song" is what continues to develop my style as a drummer. Currently I drum for Matt Cory (Manitoba Loud Music Band of the Year), provide tracks for Entwined Music and Production in Calgary, and work with a variety of artists across Canada and the US both in the studio and for live events. Please reach out if you need drums or percussion for your next live event or studio project. I look forward to working with you!
