Randy's drumming influences started at birth as his father was a snare drummer with the Scottish pipe band in Toronto.

Randy counts Stewart Copeland and the music of The Police among his early influences, as well as reggae artists like Bob Marley. He also listened to and learned much from the R&B/Funk music of Earth, Wind & Fire, The Commodores, Michael Jackson and Kool and the Gang.
