Thanks for stopping by - truly, this is MY Space!

I'm a professional drummer/ percussionist, I also play some bass and keyboards. I'm a recording and live sound engineer/ artist/ producer/ a digital designer and Internet marketer - all with a healthy Texas renaissance man's drive for excellence. I'm a humored spirit of God; Striking a balanced groove between instinct and the methodical, between expression, reality and the spiritual. I push the boundaries, and when I get comfortable, I find it's time to raise the bar higher yet again - I call that doing what I love. And, if you can't live pursuing and doing what you love, than you're not really living.

Voodoo Rods

Voodoo Rods are my answer to the dowel rod drumsticks available today. A product I've developed to meet my needs and address the cons of commercial rods their clones and cheap knockoffs. Oddly enough developed by necessity, stumbled upon by innovative intent and ancient history.

The "rod" drum stick is a relatively new idea to modern drumming, though it's actually been around since the dawn of drumming. I found the concept interesting - after trying them out I was hooked! Not a stick and not a brush, but a drum stick that offers the best of both worlds. I doubt they'll impress heavy hitters, but for drummer with an appreciation of more finessed styles, these are a great idea- mine are even better!

The Flex Clamp
Vibraslap Flex Clamp
I love the sound of the Vibraslap, a popular instrument with a familiar sound made by Latin Percussion (LP). For years it's been a part of my drum sound arsenal, right up there with tambourines, wood blocks and cowbells. The only problem is mounting it securely and allowing it to make it's trademark sound. Drummers and percussionist world wide agree that LP's Vibraslap clamp is a very poor design. I've always wondered if LP ever really tested their clamp?

Kufi Caps
Drummer's Kufi Cap
Neil Peart never looked so good!
My Kufi Cap design expands on the style made popular via the music world by Neil Peart of Rush, taking the concept to a new level of great looks for musicians, especially drummers, and just about anybody!¯

I designed it to be functional for the active skull, keeping the hair out of the face and sweat out of the eyes and still look stylish. The design is based upon traditional African caps yet 100% made in the USA!

Seeking Top Dogs!

Voodoo Dogs

I'm forming a professional music group - I like to think of it more like a truly high caliber entertainment group.

Over the past few years I've decided to finally part with the prior circles (as in going in circles) and seek out members to join me in what will ultimately become Texas' best professional music group. I've met a lot of great folks already in my quest for "top dogs", many are at the table ready to come on board when I start bringing the full enclave together.
