Based near Gatwick with car to travel - Sussex, Surrey and London.
Trumpet - looking to play backing line with preference for rock, pop, ska but open to all ideas. Been playing about 15 years - now lead trumpet in a concert wind band. Love improvising for Jazz meet ups - reasonable standard to while away a few hours on standards.
Drums - versatile for all styles / have a small kit for Jazz ensemble but also a bigger kit for Rock/Pop covers. My musical heritage is 70s-00s rock and popular music, but I can adapt to the band genre. Currently drumming in a small big band and open to dep or more for any band needing a reliable drummer.
