Rock music for the soul from the heart.
Currently in production.
Been a minute since I’ve posted, but the work continues as I find the time. Here’s me yesterday smashing out drums for a recording of my recent SCALA FOOM live section entry, Open Water.

Having some fun yesterday, and making some progress on these double bass quadruplets. Sometimes I rush the fill back to one; not sorry, there’s no click track or other people to get all out of sync over it. #drums #musiciansky #musicsky

On the first take of this guitar track (this video is a few takes later) I’d forgotten about the massive drum fill and completely fell apart.

This is an older song I’m bringing back, doubtful these are keeper, but I’m having fun.

I’m playing guitar a fair bit too! I learned my minor blues scale a while back so now I can noodle a bit like this. I’ll post up some more guitar vids as I get more comfortable with the space and my playing. #guitar

Having fun during practice yesterday. Making some progress sneaking these double bass fills in, even if there’s some slop here and there, getting more comfortable playing them in time. Especially love crushing that snare. #drums

Here’s a clip from recent practice. Finally got myself *and* the drums in the shot!

Sometimes I can’t resist working the funky drummer beat into a jam.

I’ve been working on my instrumental chops the past few years, going back to when I was in school, which I graduated in ‘22. Learning drum rudiments and double-bass, blues scale improv on guitar, and even some piano. Here’s a minute of a common drum practice improv from last week. Still learning!
