SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Pro/semi-pro drummer with many years experience... had a few stabs at the big time, couple of recording contracts, have a wide taste in music, just enjoy playing with talented musicians and spending time with fun individuals. I've been composing music for film and TV and providing drum tracks for other composers and songwriters the last few years. I've been traveling with work the last few years so not had the opportunity to join a band. Finally settled in North East London and keen to join a band for recording and gigging. I don't read dots but I keep great time and play the groove with minimal and tasteful fills. I have run venues in Manchester and London and programmed and presented over a thousand gigs. I'm a very young and uncynical 50 year old with loads of enthusiasm and energy and want to keep making great music.
