Hello all, and welcome. If we haven't already met, I'm a percussionist based in the New York City area. Percussion from every corner of the globe is my collective voice, whether playing in traditional folkloric settings or applying sounds and grooves of the world to R-n-B, jazz, folk, etc. I also compose, sing, and produce.
These pages will let you know more about what I'm doing and what I've done, how to reach me and what's on my mind.
UPDATES:
Okay, let's get right to it. Inspired by my extended trip to Guadeloupe, here are three tunes that feature some of the rhythms I learned there.

And there's more. If you are a composer or producer and need some percussion grooves, contact me about what you need for your tune or library. I'll customize and record a groove for you that you can loop to suit your needs. Or, the old fashioned way of bringing me into your studio is always a pleasure!
