We asked...Why Gretsch?: 

"Gretsch has an incredible reputation of being the best in the business across the board for musicians. The moment I put that reputation to the test for myself I was nothing less than satisfied and captivated by the beautiful sound of those drums. From that day on it's been a no brainer for me.”

Advice to Aspiring Musicians: 

“Keep learning different techniques and approaches to playing as well as learning different styles of music. Professionally, doors open that may not have opened before because you hadn't studied or practiced a certain style or genre."
