Been drumming for over 10 years, competent, and taught beyond grade 8 in multiple genres including rock, prog, metal, fusion jazz, as well as bits of lots else. I have experience gigging in venues such as SWG3 Poetry Club, Room2, Drygate, the Bungalow etc, as well as experience busking with a full band in the city centre. I have good musical knowledge, having written and recorded several tracks with previous bands, and having studied musical theory. I have played with orchestras in the Royal Concert Hall, drums and percussion, and have experience recording with the Cooperation Brass Band. I am also decently competent on the piano, which I have at grade 6 level.
