He was raised in the Boston area and began playing drums at age thirteen. He covers rock, soul, R&B, heavy metal, jazz fusion, funk, punk, rap, hip hop and pop. As an engineer and/or producer, Mover has worked with Shakira, Flo Rida, Brett Scallions, Rick Ross, Fuel, Carnival Divine and French guitar virtuoso Rudy Roberts among others, as well as being the engineer and sound editor on Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup. Although Mover works primarily in the studio, he can be seen on the road these days touring with The Tubes, subbing for their drummer Prairie Prince.

In June 2012, on extremely short notice, Mover replaced an injured Glen Sobel as the drummer for Alice Cooper's U.S./Canadian summer tour with Iron Maiden and Cooper's headline tour of Europe.

Skyline Studios NYC

Mover owned and operated one of New York's finest state-of-the-art recording studios called Skyline Recording Studios NYC (1995 - 2012), which played host to a variety of top artists, a short list being Steely Dan, Billy Joel, Patti Smith, Avril Lavigne, Shakira, Dudu Fisher, Jake Shimabukuro, Flo Rida, Gov't Mule, David Byrne, Jessica Simpson, Fuel, Natasha Bedingfield, Mariah Carey, Kazumi Watanabe, Wu-Tang Clan, Madonna, The B-52's, David Bowie,....

Drumhead Magazine

His latest venture is Drumhead. Drumhead separates itself from the other drum/percussion magazines by being a multi-media package, Mover's design and concept. Each issue includes an audio CD, containing music to listen and play along to, private lessons from some of the world's top players and audio reviews/previews. The CD also corresponds to an extensive website which includes all of the lessons in video format. Mover also conducts many of the interviews, making for a much more personal and true portrayal of the life and career of the featured artist. Bill Bruford, Andy Newmark, Simon Phillips, Barriemore Barlow, Manu Katche, Horacio Hernandez, Neil Peart, Phil Collins, Kenny Aronoff and Jim Keltner are only a handful that Mover has interviewed.

einstein

einstein was Mover's side project, which gave him the opportunity to compose, play various instruments, produce and engineer. He wrote and released two critically acclaimed discs, entitled "einstein won" and "einstein too." The latter includes guest performances by Trey Gunn of King Crimson, Derek Sherinian of Planet X, Jens Johansson of Stratovarius and Jani Mangini of Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
