  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    The song inspires me. I want to play what the song needs, I want to tell the story of every artist I work with. I want to be the best drummer I can be in the name of music.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Beeing a good musician is not only about beeing a good drummer. Listen to the players you play with and listen to the story everybody has to tell on their instrument. Don't play just for yourself, play together and play what is needed. If you can find that balance, you'll be a fantastic musician. No matter how technical you are, no matter what gear you have. You'll be fantastic.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    The fantastic Crash Of Doom in a Kerope setup :)
