A greatconversation on The Happy Musicians Podcast! Talking about pedagogy, being present and examining how we are learning and experiencing music.

My introduction to the Kansas City community as their new Principal Percussionist!

On “Talking with the Elite”, I shared my experiences coming up through Chicago, hitting the audition circuit and landing in Calgary.

I had a very good conversation with my old friend, Simon Gomez, just kickin’ it and chatting about auditions and more.

Had the pleasure of chatting with Gage Banks about my books and other topics during the quarantine.

I returned to the @Percussion Podcast!

I visited an old friend, Rich Stitzel, and had a great conversation for his podcast on Drum Mantra. I highly recommend that you check out his content. There are so many similarities and parallels to our approaches.

On the week of my Carnegie Hall concert, Chicago Tonight had an emergency. A musical guest could not appear to be interviewed and they needed a replacement immediately. Not sure how they found me, but they called my cell phone and I almost ignored it. Next thing I knew, I was on Chicago Tonight.

After the From the Top concert I received another call, but the number was from New York. Again, I almost let it ring, but I answered and was asked to fly to New York for an interview on the Today Show. So me and my dad went shopping for a new suit, rehearsed some lines, and went to New York again for the interview.
