Had an amazing time performing with dragonchild at 2023 APAP, DROM. We channeled lots of diverse influences, from Henry Threadgill (using the hubcaphone) to Maharashtrian (Indian) street rhythms. A super fun blend of acoustic percussion and digital beats.
Excited to kick off this new duo with DA Mekonnen (dragonchild) in New York City!
Kicking off the year with a solo-set at the new(ish) Shift in Brooklyn. Especially honored to have been invited by the inimitable Michael Wimberly for this double-bill.
Honored to have been invited to perform at NMASS 2022. I’m bringing a duo project with Dragonchild (Danny Mekonnen of Debo Band’s solo moniker) for a one-off presentation on July 23, 2022
Stoked to have been invited by Microtones to play a dance party in Ithaca at The Forest Lodge. This will be my first time collaboration with Glitter Skulls ( Chris Knight) as well!
Had an amazing time at Slingshot Festival. It was quite an amazing line-up overall! I was fortunate enough to witness amazing sets from Black Rave Culture, Aurora Halal, Barker, Carl Craig, Signals Under Test and Ultrabillions.

“This show is a unique hybrid between live performance and production. You’ll also hear the influence of street sounds from underground dance music from Sao Paolo to Durban to Mumbai and beyond. The masterful mix of acoustic and electronic drums and cultures makes for a musical experience not to miss. “
