I am 33 years of age, single & have a passion for performing live music.I have been playing the drums since the age of 5.I studied the drums under a professional drum tutor for 7 years & during this time learned many of the various playing techniques from past to present.I started seriously performing live from the age of around 12 where I played drums for a local band, playing in pubs & clubs around Warwickshire.I have performed to both small & large audiences & I will say in all honesty, I am as passionate playing to 10 people as to 10,000. I have a varied musical taste including Jazz, Blues, Country, Rock & Roll, Soft Rock, Hard Rock, Progressive Rock & Pop with various musical influences ranging from Buddy Rich & Steve Smith for their Jazz techniques, Mike Portnoy & Neal Peart for progressive techniques & Nico McBrain & Roger Taylor (Queen drummer) for their all round Rock style.Whilst I have enjoyed many years of playing & performing live music, in various styles & in various bands, my ambition is to perform on a regular basis & to, ultimately, earn a living from playing the drums.
