Big announcement part 1
Hey Folks!!!
As promised: I have some news comin at you and I figured I’d give it to you in a few installments!
First up: I have the great and supreme pleasure of announcing that I am now playing drums with Paul Cargnello. We have been rehearsing up the songs off his new album The Hardest Part Is You May Never Know which is being released at the end of November on Stomp Records (The Union Label Group/Warner)
To fans of Paul’s work: we will also be playing a bunch of the old tunes as well so don’t worry about that!! Below is a list of upcoming shows as well as the first video off the new album. All dates will also be posted on my shows page.
I’m looking forward to seeing all of you on the road at the shows!! For a teaser of the songs off the new album just click on this ***LINK*** to view the video for ‘Rebel Architectes’.

I am now the newest addition to the MCD Percussion artists roster, and their very first Canadian endorser!!
I am extremely pleased to finally be able to announce my endorsement deal with MCD Percussion, an absolutely amazing custom drum company from Philadelphia PA. After months of design, planning, and excellent service, I received my brand new kit this week and it is amazing!! These drums are awesome!!! I can’t wait to start gigging with it and to spread the word about MCD drums.
Here are the specs of my new kit:
Canadian maple ply in custom black/cherry burst
Chrome single-sided beavertail lugs

A huge thank-you to Mike Mastropietro, Nick Costa, and the whole MCD family. Thank-you so much for creating an absolutely beautifully flawless drum-set.
See you on the road!
