ABOUT

**UPDATE April 2024: Currently found a Band so not looking right now!***

Played drums for years in all sorts of bands in multiple locations - ended up in all sorts of rock bands during my college/uni and then first few working years playing paid gigs recorded an ep and even got close to a management deal in London band until disaster struck and had all my drums stolen from my car which grounded me for a few years! A few years (and a family!) later I bought an electronic kit - now upgraded to a mesh kit so I can practice when I can. Also trying out a double bass drum pedal! Would love to get involved with a local band for a bit of fun and a few gigs again!

Influences

The 80’s pop and metal era are my main influences (Metallica, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Van Halen, Toto, Dire Straits, The Police, Nick Kershaw, Mr Mister, etc.), but also like prog rock (e.g. Asia, Genesis, Rush), some acid jazz (e.g.Jamiroquai) and blues and I enjoy a bit of classical too. Big fan of War of the Worlds music - Hate Rap and Country music!!
