Description:
Since 1999, I have collaborated with various musicians to create music. My journey began as an alto singer in the American Boychoir, where I played a crucial role in blending my voice's color to fit the choir's sound. In 2004, I embraced drumming, and my approach remains the same as my singing days. My goal is to support the song's emotional delivery and groove, sit in the pocket, and drive the music. I also enjoy presenting options, allowing you to select the perfect foundation for your next smash hit.

Not only did Mike excel as a member of our wedding band, but he also took charge of its management. He efficiently coordinated the band, arranged rehearsals, and learned and instructed various songs that we requested. Additionally, he presented an array of fantastic tracks. His drumming talents are undeniable, and his delightful demeanor makes him a pleasure to collaborate with. I strongly endorse him.

Working with Mike on various creative projects was an absolute pleasure! I enlisted his help with drum recordings for a few of my songs and was blown away by his impressive microphone setup and myriad of options. Mike's dedication to acoustics also stood out to me as he shared his methodology in using in-ears and working alongside another engineer to perfect microphone placement in his recording space, resulting in top-notch recordings.
Not only did I collaborate with Mike on the music front, but I also had the opportunity to play a few gigs with him in his cover band. His professionalism and punctuality were always on point, making sure everyone had the necessary equipment and cords for a successful show. Additionally, Mike's skills in creative coding came in handy when I needed help with my website.
Overall, Mike is a valuable asset to any professional or creative project. His extensive knowledge and expertise in the various facets of music recording and performance are remarkable, and I would happily work with him again in the future!

Collaborating with Mike is an utter delight! His efficiency and systematic approach are incredible. To date, he has played drums on five of my songs and has produced fantastic tracks in a short time. Mike is receptive to my suggestions, and he also contributes excellent ideas of his own. I highly recommend enlisting Mike's services to record drums for you!

If we momentarily set aside his exceptional musical talent, it is without a doubt that Mike is an extraordinary individual. My spouse and I were blown away by his assistance leading up to and during our wedding ceremony. We had the notion of building a wedding band from our scattered group of loved ones who live all over the nation. Mike devoted an incredible amount of effort into making our event unforgettable. We gave him the songs we wanted, and he did the rest! He reached out to the whole band, crafted and practiced the music, arranged gatherings and rehearsals, and so much more, all of which he accomplished before our wedding weekend!
At the ceremony, he took charge of renting and assembling all the sound equipment and instruments, coordinated additional trials, and even played the role of a structural engineer when sudden rainfall required us to add an impromptu roof to the spot where the band was going to play. Even though it must have been a taxing weekend for him (he's so laid-back and cool that you couldn't even tell), he remained steadfast in making sure that we had the best wedding experience possible. He was a pleasure to work with. And, on top of it all, he's an exceptional musician with an incredible range. The ad-hoc band that he brought together through sheer will-power was the highlight of our night and brought limitless energy to our dance floor. They sounded fantastic! Although Mike was the only professional musician in the band, his arrangements showcased every band member's talents and guaranteed that they sounded impressive. We cannot overstate Mike's abilities and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Mike's remarkable ability to communicate and demonstrate exceptional drumming skills are truly impressive, resembling the density of a neutron star. He excels in various aspects of music, including live performances, rehearsals, and recording sessions. When it came to my projects, I had minimal ideas regarding drum arrangements, but Mike took over and exceeded my expectations. Despite my limited knowledge of drumspeak, he flawlessly captured the essence of my tracks, adding the perfect amount of rhythmic precision and energy. Mike is open to constructive feedback, a supportive team member, and exudes positive vibes. I strongly recommend him to anyone interested in realizing their creative vision.
