LOANER is a rock band, drummer, guitarist, bassist, and singer. I'm all about playing my LOANER tunes to anyone that will let me. I write and perform the music that is LOANER, music that I'm passionate about, ROCK MUSIC. No synthesizers, dj scratches, drum machines, just guitar, bass, drums and rock vocals. I share the live stage with a full band and they help me bring my music to life.
When I'm not doing LOANER shows I'm out doing gigs on drums, or playing guitar with other artist, from rock, funk, and country. I'm open to all styles of music. I dig solid drummers, drummers that keep it in the pocket. If you need a live or sessions drummer give me a call.
I started my musical journey back in the day at my father's church playing drums. It was a family thing, my mother on the piano, and brothers on guitars and my Dad singing at loud volumes. Ha!. In High School I began to learn more important things about drumming besides just playing loud. I met my classmate and fellow drummer Shawn Fichter(Peter Frampton, Trisha Yearwood, etc.) my junior year. Looking back Shawn opened my eyes to a lot of things based around drums. I kept practicing and got my chops up to par. Years later I formed a band with my brothers Feezel in the mid-west. Touring throughout the U. S., opening for many well known bands like P.O.D., Switchfoot, MXPX, etc. Feezel ran its course and I had a blast doing that. I continued my musical career while playing with a variety of bands and artist.
Now fast forward to this present day. I always played a bit of guitar with my brothers, but I finally got serious and now I enjoy playing live behind the guitar performing Loaner tunes. I live out west in sunny Arizona. I stay busy writing music, playing live and just living life.
