01 / About
Percussion with range—and a reason to dance.
I'm Austin, a Long Island percussionist working across Latin jazz, salsa, contemporary dance music, and orchestral percussion. My setup brings timbales into the drum kit, opening up a sound that can move from tight ensemble playing to a full-on dance floor.
