ABOUT
Hi. As far as the music world goes I go by Daz. I've been playing live off and on for nearly 40 years in several countries around the world and have worked as a Percussion tech too so no stranger to most aspects of what goes on. Nowadays I just want to play and have a good time! Presently beating skins around the Peterborough (UK) area for 'The Undefined' and 'Resurgence' - me and my customised Premier set-up so say hi if you catch me in the wild - almost always happy to chat about the passion we all share. Started doing some backing vocals a few years ago and that has stuck even though it's not always in my 'happy place'
