It’s Joannes world we are all just living in it. Happy Mother’s Day to this incredible woman. I love you more than words can say. And so does Bean:)

Fuji 400 and iPhone pics as of late.

I’m really excited and proud to announce that I am officially a Canopus snare drum artist. My relationship with Canopus goes back a long way. I began using their wires and washers on all my drums - then expanding into snares and their amazing pedal products. They make exceptional drums- and truly first class snare wires, that really enhance snare sensitivity and feel. My Phenol Fiber 14/5.5 has been with me since 2015 and it’s been all over the country. To Joey and to Nori with the team in Japan - thank you all so much! I’m so grateful for the opportunity to play your instruments. @canopusdrums And of course, Shane and Tony, Tom & the crew at @drumcenternh thank you for ruining me by introducing me to nothing but the best.

This year is off to a smokin start. Had a blast w @kelseywaldon and the muleskinners - saw so many trains and took in a lot of history. Thanks to @paistecymbals for their continued support. I’m so proud to play your instruments. Good things to come for 2025.

So many special moments it’s hard to narrow it down to one post. Feeling exceptionally grateful to share the stage with so many kind and wonderful people. Thank you @kelseywaldon for taking me on this epic adventure. From the bottom of me heart, thank you all for trusting me to make music with. I’m a lucky dude. Can’t wait to get out there and make more music in 2025. 👏🏼
