ABOUT

Hey! I'm a London based Drummer and Guitarist, originally from New Zealand and looking become a professional touring musician and play the biggest live shows I possibly can!

I have played on everything from festivals like Download, Teddy Rocks, The Great Escape etc, to smaller tours, pubs and club gigs and even touring covers circuits.

Looking to pick up some more dep/session work, or jump into being a part of a more established touring project. I'm not really looking to build something from the ground up unless we have professional contacts and a solid plan already in place.

I'm happy to travel for the right opportunity, so yeah get in touch if you think we'd align and work well together!

EQUIPMENT

Professional level gear on all instruments, always feel a bit odd flexing equipment lol.
Top tier cymbal set and breakables, double pedal etc.
I use a Headrush MX-5 for all my Guitar and Bass stuff, amp modelling DI straight into the Amp Head or PA for practice and live.
Also have my own DAW recording setup and equipment to record and program drums at home
