SEEKING
Vocalist, Bass Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I'm a drummer/percussionist living in the Midlands and always interested to hear about writing, recording or live projects - and happy to travel! Preferred styles are pop/indie/pop-rock.
I'm currently working with a good friend (guitarist) to set up a high-quality party band, with a view to playing reasonably 70's influenced, stylish and vibey music that everyone can dance to! Looking for a regular weekly rehearsal and one or two great gigs a month.
I have been playing drums for over 30 years in a range of bands and styles; from funk to indie/rock in style and from covers bands to original music. In recent years I have been focusing on original music and spent 5 years with Red Vein and Low Flames both writing and recording (video and music on this page). More recently I played live drums and piano on Sevara Nazarkhan's album, Pisma.
