STIX has was born in Washington D.C as a boy he was always running around his house and could never hold still. So one day his father took him to a local music store at about the age of 5 STIX not knowing what to do with him self went straight to the drums! that's when his life would change forever! his father purchased a simple practice pad made by Remo drum company and a pair of Marching sticks. Having those items purchased and destroyed in a week or so STIX then decided to make his very own drum set using cardboard boxes and some paint to make drum heads and different colors for different size heads that lasted and so that lasted about a day. There was nothing left for STIX to hit so his father took him back to the music store and decided to buy him a small drum set. it was a P.D set having that destroyed by him within two days his parents decided to enroll the young drummer into drum lessons he took drum lessons for about ten years or so having been taught by 3 different drum instructors they simply said, there's nothing left to teach him he needs to get in some bands to jam with! So that's what the young drummer did at age 15 he started his first jam band from high school. Kids would come over to his house to hear the young drummer's band play! He has since played in a number of bands and has done many types of drum offs against other drummers and has taught young drummers and even mentally challenged kids how to hold simple beats by themselves and has even created his own unique style of drumming. He has earned sponsorships. HE also, has his own merch such as buttons, shirts, stickers, etc. He was also the drummer for the well known punk band on the east coast named SO DAMN THIRSTY. STIX joing XSTROPHY on July 27th and has helped bring them to an entirely different playing level. With STIX now being the backbone of XSTROPHY the possibilities are limitless.
