"Being a self taught drummer, from a rock and roll background. I'm blessed to have the support of Mapex. I've never doubted the hardware withstanding the energy it takes night after night. And the drums are so diverse. Whether I'm playing a rock gig or hip hop I know with a little tweak the kit will be singing to the style required."
