I started playing drums in high school at Brother Martin in New
Orleans. After high school I attended Xavier University where I
majored in Music. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Music and
moved to California that Summer.
After a short time I met several musicians and began making a
name for myself as a competent replacement drummer for some of
the best Central California bands. I've had the pleasure of
performing with: "Omar the Magnificent", Lawrence Bohanon,
"Three Guys Playing the Blues", "Chocolate Soup", "Bimbo
Walker", "Pamela Henry and the Big Boss Band," and "Skeekos
Road House Band".
I recorded with the "Blu J Band", Hosea Leavey Blues Band",
Good Medicine with Frank Sipes","Melinda Masters" with Girl
Candy Records, and "Bimbo Walker and the Mighty Shuffaloos."
Without a doubt the best power trio I've ever played in was "Who
Cares" with Donny Klien and Jeff Faila. I will forever miss that
band.
I moved back to New Orleans in 2002 with a catalog of original
songs and a desire to get back to the basics of improving my
drumming skills.
After playing in a few bands I'm back to subbing for other
drummers and looking forward to producing my own music which is
as un-identifiable as I am.
My original catalog contains Country, Funk, New Orleans Funk, and
Heavy Rock.
I look forward to getting it all recorded and given away soon.
