I grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where I started piano, guitar, and drums and quickly moved into live shows and home studio work. After high school I headed to Los Angeles to pursue music. I studied at the Percussion Institute of Technology in Hollywood and built a career as a professional musician, performing with Infectious Grooves, Alanis Morissette, Eric Burdon, Esai Morales, Ryan Starr, and Stevie Wonder’s band, among others. My styles span jazz, blues, pop, rock, funk, soul, and Latin. I led The Funk Foundation with a lineup of renowned players, and later moved my production company to Costa Rica to produce Funk in the Jungle – Concert for Earth, while working from a rainforest studio on the Caribbean coast.
