Inspired by his musical parents, this Arlington, VA native has been playing drums since the age of 5. Brian performed with the Arlington and McLean Symphonies in Virginia at just 13 years old and later graduated from the Atlanta Institute of Music with honors. Brian has toured around the world for over 15 years, including a European Tour with Grammy Award-winning Reggae Band SOJA and US tours supporting acts such as Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, Toots and the Maytals, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and Grammy award-winning Reggae Band Black Uhuru. Brian’s most recent tour included performing with singer/songwriter Mike Pinto in over 40 states. He has released 5 full length albums with Atlanta Based rock band Groove Stain, recorded drums, and produced several albums locally, Nationally, and Internationally. He has worked with Grammy Award-winning producers Shondrae Crawford and Rico Wade of Outkast, Ludacris, and Usher.
Brian is very privileged to be an endorsee and part of the Sabian Cymbal family. Brian says that being able to play his drums, work with this fabulous cast and crew every day, and have the time to spend with his wife, Ashley, and son, Landen, is the greatest part of his job.
