SEEKING

ABOUT

I am an experienced semi-professional drummer on the lookout for new opportunities. Having parted ways last year with a successful local 80s cover band and with my originals band Colvex now on hiatus I am feeling the itch to play again and am keen to find exciting new avenues to explore - whether with a new or established originals band or occasionally performing or depping with a good covers/ tribute band in line with my influences.

With my originals bands I have written, recorded and released albums and EPs on all the usual digital platforms (along with limited edition physical formats) and have performed at hundreds of gigs and festivals over the years across London and the South East.

In addition to drumming I can offer backing vocals and, as a songwriter, can play guitar (to some extent). I have all my own gear and drive. Willing to travel up to around an hour for rehearsals and possibly more for the right gig.
