Love to do my technique sessions when the sun is out. Working on flams, single and double strokes today inspired by some good old Wilcoxon - All American Drummer. In a few weeks, I’ll be joining the faculty of ‘Jazz au Vert’ @leslundisdhortense for some drums and technique workshop during their summer camp. Only a few spots left, so hurry up! :-)

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I've become an ambassador for @vaterdrumsticks! Having played with their exceptional drumsticks for a substantial duration, it's a genuine privilege to officially join the Vater family. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to @vaterbenelux, @emp_bv, and, especially, @hoefnagelsedwin for their unwavering support and trust in me as a musician, drummer, and educator. I'm excited for the journey ahead and can't wait to showcase the incredible versatility and quality of Vater Drumsticks.

Picture taken by @andersvranken during a wonderful night at Ghent with Karel Ceulenare and @cyrilleobermuller. Very grateful to play with these guys and it was definitely worth the two and a bit-day trip to Belgium! To be continued.

I'm ridiculously proud and grateful that my biggest dream becomes reality.
As a laureate for the BAEF Music Fellowship 2019 I'm happy to announce that I received a scholarship to live and study in New York next year!
I definitely couldn’t do this all by myself and it would have never been possible without the support of all you who believed in me as a musician.
A special thanks to the all star band and buddies that played with me at the audition (Karel, Roeland, Sylvain and Cyrille), Muri for the enormous help with all the paperwork and my girlfriend Lieselot for the mental support, believing in me and standing by my side in hard times.
Last but not least I’m very humble that I had the privilege to hang out with, play with and get coached by so many amazing people in the last few years.
Big hug and let’s celebrate soon! #proud #grateful #scholarship #music #musician #musicianslife #drums #drummer #drummerslife #drummersofistagram #opportunity #newyork #NYC #newyorkcity #bucketlist #local #bigapple #capitol #bestplacestogo #placetobe # #jazz #studies #hardwork #determination #art #artist #noboundaries #onceinalifetime
