SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a drummer/percussionist living in London. I am finishing up my Ph.D. in music from Royal Holloway University of London. I have experience playing Asian traditional music, math punk, gothic rock, some metal, and I currently play in an improvised/modern composition noise project called Vultures Quartet. I typically play traditional percussion, found objects, household items, homemade instruments, as well as standard drum kits. I can also give lessons and lectures and I am also currently working on the sound design for an XBox 360 game. I am looking for more projects - anything interesting and professional.

EQUIPMENT
I regularly play a 5 piece Premier kit, but I have several kits, and I often use either a piccolo snare and/or a marching snare with the kit. I also use household items like bicycles, pots, cd racks, shelf brackets, mixing bowls, et ceterea, along with Middle Eastern and Asian percussion.
