I have been fortunate over the past 35 years to be able to play with some very artistic and musical people. Since a very early age I heard the sounds of my surrounding Eastern North Carolina home. From, Country, Southern Gospel, Rock n Roll, Pop, R & B and Contemporary Christian. I would listen to them unknowing at the time this would give me the edge to become one to the most versatile drummers in the area. I was very inspired by Buddy Rich. Growing up in the 80’s when the more drums you had the better was the style; Buddy Rich could do much more with just a 4-piece kit. So I began to study music, not just reading it but by hearing it and being pulled into its influence at a very young age.

Traveling in the 80’s and 90’s gave me a chance to open up for a lot of popular rock groups. This was a hard road but I was able to learn what I needed to survive in the music business for so long. From the mid 90’s to present I have been focusing on God’s Music, recording and playing with Southern Gospel and Christian Rock bands. Currently I'm on the road with theSOul Evidence, Mike Lane Band, teaching, recording, clinics and producing locally. Again, I would like to thank you for taking the time to check out my website. I hope to see or hear from you soon. Until then May God Bless.
