We asked...Why Gretsch?: 

Phil Collins. That was the first time I heard a Gretsch kit and it stuck with me. I haven’t found a kit I like more than the Broadkaster that I’m currently playing.

Advice to Aspiring Musicians: 

My advice would be to learn how to use a DAW to make music. It’s more accessible than ever to be able to record yourself playing, to use technology to recreate the sounds you hear on the radio and to use those skills to find your own path to create music for yourself. Becoming a great drummer is one thing, becoming a great musician is another.
