My first band drumming experience was at age 12 in Sweden. I attended Musician's Institute in Hollywood, CA, for two years in the Drums program between 1995-1997. After that, I majored in music for two years with emphasis on Jazz Drums Performance at Pasadena City College in Pasadena, CA. I have plenty of live and studio experience in Los Angeles, CA. Recently, I have been playing shows around DFW, TX. I'm looking mainly for paying cover/tribute projects and/or studio sessions. Thank you!
