ABOUT

I began my drumming journey in 2000 and have been passionate about rhythm and groove ever since. Over the years, I’ve played with a couple of bands, gaining valuable experience across a range of styles and settings.

Most recently, I was the drummer for a band I played with for seven years, right up until I moved to Canada. During that time, we performed regularly at pubs, private events, and dinner dances, building strong chemistry as a group and connecting with a wide variety of audiences.

I pride myself on being reliable, adaptable, and always locked into the groove. Whether it’s holding down a solid backbeat or adding dynamics to more intimate settings, I aim to serve the music and elevate the performance.

Now based in Canada, I’m looking to connect with like-minded musicians and get back behind the kit. If you’re looking for a committed drummer who brings both experience and energy to the mix, let’s chat!

Influences

Musical Style & Influences
My playing is shaped by a diverse range of influences, including legends like Steve Gadd, John Bonham, and Carter Beauford, as well as modern drummers like Benny Greb and Chris Dave. I’m drawn to groove-heavy playing, musicality, and the ability to support a song while still adding personality behind the kit. From funk and rock to soul and jazz-inspired grooves, I love exploring rhythm in all its forms.
