Happy New Year!

1 .13 .08

Happy New Year!

I am finally back from tour and am able to jump back on the drum tracking sessions I've been back-logging.

First on the list is the 60 minute advanced drum instructional video for Jordan Rudess' Online Conservatory to augment my 90 minute beginner Core course video series.

Check out the current Core course here: JR Online Conservatory

The course is going to be called "Extreme Drum Solo Mastery" and I will be breaking down solos from Blotted Science, Arctopus and other sessions I've done.

Other albums I'll be working on include country pop artist Lindsay Drew new record on Baldwin Entertainment, Ken Rubenstein new album on Inverted Music and indie artist Tufnel.

I am also going to be featured in a full interview in the Italian Drum Magazine Planet-Drum so keep an eye out for that.

Next, I am off to the NAMM show and will be hanging around the Paiste, Vic Firth and Evans booths so come find me and give me a shout.

Finally, I updated my Paiste Artist Profile and after NAMM will be updating the Vic Firth and Evans sites with all new media. Here is the link: CZ Paiste Profile

See you there!

Behold the Arctopus/Dillinger Escape Plan Tour cancelled

Hey NYC.

So, it turns out the Behold the Arctopus/Dillinger Escape Plan Tour has unfortunately been cancelled due to their guitar player Ben Weinman breaking his foot on a video shoot.

We are now awaiting the confirmation of another tour offer for late November to support the release of our new record and are also planning a big New York CD Release Show.

I am of course still doing the big Lincoln Center hit for the International Photography Awards on October 15th.

I'm also headling Acme Underground at the CMJ Music Festival with Telling on Trixie on October 16th.

My videographer and I are going into pre-production on the Jordan Rudess Online Conservatory Satellite Course in November.

Also on the burner is a couple more Online Drum Tracks for Ken Rubenstein and the Norwegian band Tomorrow's Outlook.

Thanks everyone.
