Drummer/Percussionist

Secretary Treasurer – London Musicians Association, AFM Local 279

Drum & Percussion Instructor

Audio Engineer/Producer

My career as a professional musician has provided a wide variety of opportunities to play music in diverse environments and situations – live, studio, theatre, radio, television, festivals, and American tours. I’m available and interested in working with artists/songwriters either as a drummer/percussionist for hire or as an audio engineer/producer. I’ve worked as a pit musician for the Grand Theatre since 1997. As an instructor for all levels if ability, from beginner to advanced, I teach a wide variety of musical styles, and I’ve had great success assisting drummers prepare auditions for post-secondary music schools.

Currently I work part-time days in the office of the London Musicians Association (LMA) representing local musicians in the cities of London, St. Thomas, Sarnia and all areas within Middlesex, Lambton, and Elgin counties. The LMA represents freelance musicians and indie bands as well as the contracted musicians of the Orchestra London Players Association. Please call me at the office if you have any questions about touring, American showcase/work visas, instrument insurance, music copyright, or the other services that the LMA can provide.
