"In February of 2016, I took over the drum chair at Finding Neverland from Rich Mercurio when he moved on to a new show. Rich is one of the best drummers I've ever heard and is always very stylistically appropriate. It was my intent to replicate the prior setup as closely as I could with the gear I had available.

It's a very straightforward drum set book, augmented only by a Roland SPD-SX Sampling Pad, and no traps percussion.

The Roland pad is mostly integrated with the acoustic kit playing sampled sounds such as concert bass drum, metal pots and pans, and power toms with reverb.

And that's about it! This show is a joy to play."

"After a grueling four years at SUNY I still had one theory class left to finish. I was really depressed. A classmate of mine recommended me for a tour of a Broadway show. This completely changed the course of my life."

"When I first got the call to start working on Ain’t Too Proud - The Life And Times Of The Temptations, I was curious about which era the show was going to focus on. Their career began in the early 1960’s and they’re still releasing albums today."
"The unique part of Groundhog Day was that the drummer had to play on stage, in a groundhog costume, wearing a giant groundhog head. Since I could barely see out of the head, it was impossible to read a chart (and there wasn’t a music stand), so it had to be memorized."
