Hi I'm Jon, nice to meet you. Grab a seat, this won't take too long.
I picked up my first pair of sticks in 1995 and over the next few years I played in the West Country with a number of bands.
In 2003 I moved to Manchester/Liverpool to broaden my musical horizons where I remained for a couple years, taking in a lot of positive musical experiences in the North West.
I relocated again near to London back in 2006 and continued to play with bands and artists until recently, whereby I moved back to the West Country.
The number of Gigs I've played is in the hundreds over the last 20+ years but I am equally comfortable and experienced in the studio environment- and can play with or without a click track.
I also have also toured & performed with household names.
In the last few years I part-rented a studio in London so a lot of experience recording. I have studied with a select choice of teachers, most recently private studying with a well-known professional.
I consider myself a very friendly and committed chap who mixes well with people and is also able to focus and prepare for whatever project I am doing at any time. I feel I am very adaptable to any style and love learning new things and challenging myself.
If you're looking for a drummer and I look to fit the bill feel free to get in touch.
I am available for both studio session work and live performance work and I have a driving license & transport.
