I will record drums for your song or album for $125

As an award-winning drummer of over twenty years, I love getting the chance to jump on a new project and help bring each artist's music to life. Whether playing pop, hip-hop, indie, folk, jazz, rock, or anything in between, I bring a consistency of performance, stylistic versatility, and a constant commitment to pocket over flash (though happy to stretch wherever needed). My job is to make your music feel the way you want it to feel, not to show myself off. You can hear a few samples of my performance at this link (or via the audio samples section)

For each song, I will arrange and record a drum part to your specifications, whether you're looking for a live interpretation of a pre-programmed beat, or a fully original part to accompany your track. From there, I'll edit and send along the tracks for review. Simple as that!

My studio is equipped with a variety of drums and cymbals, including vintage Slingerland or custom Montineri kits, Ludwig, Nobel & Cooley, Pearl, and Premier snares, Zildjian cymbals, and a wide array of of outboard equipment allowing for flexibility from session to session, but for the gear heads, a more detailed description below of a go-to setup:
