I record remote drum tracks for clients around the world, and would love to provide groove for your next song or project. Basically, people send me a track as basic as guitar and vocal, up to full band, and I create a drum track tailored to the song. I offer up to 5 revisions, will send a rough mixed mp3, and the stems when the client is happy.

I understand that as an online session drummer I'm in an extremely narrow niche. That being said, if you are looking for a session drummer, or know someone who is, what I offer is 4+ decades experience as a performing and recording musician at every level in the industry, which gives me the unique combination of a session drummers understanding of the studio, along with my widely varied live experiences, allowing me to craft a tailored drum track for each and every song.
I have a great kit, (6pc Peavey Radial) DAW, (Studio One Pro) Interface, (Scarlett 18i20) Pro mics, (Shure, Sennheiser, AKG) Roland SPD-20 for percussion and a wide variety of sounds.
I offer a one day turnaround with up to 5 revisions, One rough mixed mp3, and when the client is satisfied, I send the stems.
I grew up in Europe where I joined my first band in Germany at the age of 15 and never looked back. After returning to the States I attended Berklee College of Music in Boston where I took private lessons from Alan Dawson, drummer for Dave Brubeck at the time. I got to be part of a thriving Washington DC music scene and had the opportunity to open for many national acts including Bob Seger, Steve Martin, Joan Armatrading, Rick Danko, Mitch Ryder, Andy Kaufmann, who we also backed, Roy Buchanan, Ronnie Spector among many others. After moving to Colorado in the 90’s, I've been involved with a variety of bands, and also had an opportunity to tour Air Force bases in Japan, Okinawa and Hawaii. As previously mentioned, I've been recording for decades, including going to California to record at Alpha/Omega in San Rafael, where we were produced by the late great Hammond organ wizard Howard Wales. Additionally, I was fortunate to appear on a track on Howard’s Complex/Simple CD called "Buster's Blues".
I am able to draw on my years of diverse experience to create the ideal drum track for each individual song. I do not operate under the one size fits all theory, so I approach every song as if it's one of the countless original songs I've been involved with and draw on all those experiences to craft the optimum track.
In order for me to be able to track a song, I do need at least a guitar/vocal track that has been recorded to a click or drum machine. It would help if the artist knew the BPM, but I can always find it.
I have been influenced by any number of rock drummers, jazz drummers, blues drummers, country drummers, prog drummers, so I'm all across the board with my influences.
