I hold 20 years of experience in playing the drums, in so many different context, and 9 years in teaching. I am proficient and engaged in a wide variety of music styles, including Rock, Pop, Funk, Jazz, Afro-cuban, Brazilian, Metal, Free-form and improvised. I also have skills in music theory, history of music (classical, jazz, popular), music production and arrangement.
I always was heavily involved in my home-region music scene, but I moved to London in 2019 to share paths with the group “Tankus The Henge”, with which I have toured extensively across the UK and Europe, leading large-stage performances at the likes of Glastonbury, Boomtown, Transmusicales, Isle of Wight and hundreds of medium-sized festivals and venues.? Now I am active in the London music scene, mainly with the contemp-jazz combo Pangea.
Throughout my professional career, I have recorded as a session player and as a core member of a vast array of projects, many of which have also had me in production roles.
