Drummer for shoulder the sky; interested in starting a soul/funk band
My name is David, I've been playing drums since I was 16 years old, having taught myself. I've got both an acoustic and an electric kit. I love music and have a real passion for the drums.
I love to play music. Any music. Whether it's cheesy pop, hip-hop, punk, funk, hardcore or metal. It only lets me select 4 genres on here but I play a huge variety really.
The best way to get in touch is by emailing me David.j.s_hm (hm=h.o.t.m.ail, this website messes with emails)
