Most Embarrassing Moment You’re willing to Share: I was playing a show with Dave Barnes. I kicked off the wrong song and we had to stop!Everyone laughed…
If I couldn’t be a musician for a living I’d like to: Professional Golfer and beat Tiger!
Describe a life changing moment: When I moved to Nashville, it was really cool spending my first night there alone. It was very humbling to pray for the next chapter of my life having no idea what I would end up doing. I went to the top of a hill that overlooked the skyline and prayed for a couple of hours. I didn’t have a single friend in the city and that was a cool thought. It was as if I was starting my life over.How amazing is God’s perfect plan, even though I don’t understand it most of the time…
Musical Journey: My parents noticed me beating on pots and pans when I was a child. So they got me a drum set when I was 2 years old. My dad (Band Director) taught me how to play “Wipe Out” when I was 3, and we started traveling around playing at little festivals. From then on I have been a performer! After I became a Christian I started leading worship for my youth group. That is what got me excited about Christian Music. So, I moved to Nashville at 18 and starting playing professionally. I have been very blessed so far.Playing on some cool records has led to many gigs. I met Aaron on my very first tour with Nichole Nordeman (how cool is that)!
Life Journey: I grew up going to Church with my family but didn’t really get it till my teenage years. I accepted Jesus into my life when I was 16. My life would never be the same.That is when I started playing music to glorify the Lord. I had a great church that grew me up spiritually on my journey to the present. I am currently a bachelor residing in Music City.
