2015 .. it was an AWESOME year … with lots of ups and a few bad downs which are always there to help us learn and evolve ..
Some big changes happened, just relocated to Seattle, WA with my love Robin, started new endeavors and I am sure music will be amazing in the next year and on ..
As always, I will be at NAMM in January which is always a plus after a year ends and I hope to see some familiar faces there and talk about our passion which is music ..
Thank you everyone for the support in the past years and I can say that I am truly excited for what’s coming .. I hope you all have a great new year’s and that 2016 bring to all of us, peace, joy, health and lots of challenges to keep us alive and dreaming!
Big hugs to the amazing people at Pearl Drums (Mike and Kevin), Sabian (Chris , Shirlene and Kevin), Cympad (Alexis), Rod at Humes & Berg and Ira at Samson and Julie and Rodney at Blue Mouth Promotions!
