With over three decades of recording and performance experience, I have recorded for artists including Ben Harper, Gogol Bordello, and Ghostface Killah. I’m an established, awarding-winning session drummer and I’m excited to collaborate on your project and build the drum track you’re looking for.
Growing up in Los Angeles provided me with access to a very diverse music scene. This allowed me to learn many different styles of playing including rock, funk, reggae, latin, punk, country, and indy-rock just to name a few.
I’ve enjoyed working with Ben Harper for the last 3 decades as the Drummer for his backing band, The Innocent Criminals. During this time I’ve toured, performed and/or recorded with: Ben Harper, Gogol Bordello, Lonnie Jordan (WAR), Daniel Lanois, Greg Kursten, Cree Summer, LP (singer), MoZella, Toots & the Maytals, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Rocco DeLuca, Vanessa da Mata, Michael Skloff (Friends TV show), Michael Franti and Spearhead, Rhythm Roots All-Stars, Dakah Hip Hop Orchestra, Piers Faccini, Rakim, De La Soul, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, Ghostface Killah, Blackalicious, Mariachi El Bronx, Weapon of Choice, and The Soul of John Black.
I’ve also had the pleasure of working with some amazing producers, including Rick Ruben, Daniel Lanois, Rob Cavallo, JP Plunier, Andrew Scheps, Jude Cole, Rob Hill and Michael Skloff.
