MUSICAL CV E-mail
My return to the drums in 2009 was a decision that was not taken lightly.
If I was going to do it, I was going to do it to the best of my ability and as a result, I have worked extremely hard, and continue to do so, on my drumming, style and performance abilities.

Self taught, I am very much a 'musical' rather than 'technical' drummer, although once again, this is something I am looking very closely at trying to expand on.

I research extensively the equipment that I feel will best represent me and will always continue to do so. Visual impact and flair all adds to the performance, it also reflects something of myself, so this is something very much in evolution as I come back up to speed after a 1/4 century away.

Having worked in and around the music business, since before I had even left school, my music industry CV is the testament of my commitment to my work and the industry and while my drumming CV is somewhat shorter having been put on pause in 1985, I hope to increase both sessions and live work in the future.
