ABOUT

Hi there,

I've been drumming since I was 11 years old and have experience writing, gigging and recording with several bands and artists. I have quite an eclectic taste and a fairly versatile skill set, but I've tried to list some of my major influences below.

I currently have a writing project (http://www.defytheocean/) but I'd like to be playing live more often, so I'm looking for a band that are interested in fairly regular gigging. Whether it's laying down some grooves in a funk/soul act, or playing dark, technical prog-rock, I'm open to pretty much all avenues (though I'm not a double-kick player). If I feel a strong connection to the music then I will pour as much time and energy as I can into it.

I also really value the social aspect of collaborating on shared creative goals, so I'm hoping to join a project where there's potential for new friendships!

Thanks a lot for reading and feel free to get in touch if you'd like to chat.
