Drummer | Producer
My boy and I had an amazing week in LA with the other boys! Added bonus: my brother, who I’ve been watching the Grammy’s with since MJ debuted the Moonwalk got to come along for the ride with his lady! We didn’t win, but the experience was AMAZING!
Holy moly!
What a way to wake up! Rolled over in bed this morning to hit snooze and was greeted by a hundred texts of “congratulations.” For what, I wondered. Recess Monkey’s album Novelties has been nominated for a GRAMMY! Like a real life GRAMMY for Best Children’s Album! I’m in total shock. Been shaking and giggling uncontrollably all day!
This is sure to be a wild ride, stay tuned…
Holy smokes! Our new CD is here and it is available ONLY on Amazon.com or at one of our shows. If you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber… GOOD NEWS! You already have it to stream for FREE! Not a Prime member or love having that disc in your hands? Order a copy here: NOVELTIES, YO!
I’ve never loved being on camera, but making this video made me feel like throwing up in an all-new way…

Here’s a little ditty that kind of introduces me to Recess Monkey fans for the first time, all about an undersea drummer named “Fish Sticks.” This has become a super fun part of our live show for me. And I love that kids have taken to calling me “Fish Sticks” now!
My first music video with Recess Monkey has finally arrived!

What a weekend! I just got back from 4 days in New York City where I attended Kindiefest, a conference for musicians playing music for families. Recess Monkey went out to catch up with old friends and to introduce me to the community for the first time. I’ve never met such an amazingly friendly, welcoming and talented people in my life!
A highlight of the trip was an evening spent at SiriusXM Headquarters where we collaborated with 9 other Kindie bands including The Okee Dokee Brothers, The Not-Its!, SteveSongs, Brady Rymer, Charlie Hope, Lunch Money, The Sugar-Free All-Stars, Dean Jones, the Pop Ups, Tim & the Space Cadets and Mista Cookie Jar. A video of a “We Are the World”-inspired song should be up soon. The special will play on SiriusXM’s Kids Place Live this Memorial Day Weekend.
