Professional Session Drummer with lots of experience, from Funk, Soul, Pop, Jazz, to Metal, Rock and Punk
i have worked with big bands based on Buddy Rich Style, soul bands, through to rock, metal, playing gigs and recording the full stretch of the UK and World Wide
I have a professional approach to music, and i am very energetic.
I am dedicated to whichever project i am on, and will give 100% until the bitter end.

I am currently working closely with Sony BMG as a session artist, and have been lucky enough to travel the Country and Globe to do this.
I am professional and friendly to the end with absolute no ego

My commitment to projects has been met with gratitude from record companies and artists, which resulted in them always asking me back.
I have experience writing songs, and have extensive experience working in the studio, and to a click track.

I am also an educator in Newcastle upon Tyne, hosting one of the most successful drum schools in the north east, offering my services to schools, and hosting Drum Clinics throughout the country.
I am glad to say non of my students has failed an exam yet (fingers crossed) but that is all there doing, and the hard work they put in within the lesson.

I am a great believer in stepping out your comfort zone in the musical sense, you never learn and grow as a musician if you are comfortable.
