Hey everyone,
I’m a 19-year-old multi-instrumentalist back home in Essex until late August after completing my first year at Berklee College of Music (studying both Drums and Piano).
I am looking to fill my summer calendar with function gigs, wedding sets, session work, or last-minute dep slots.
? DRUMS (15 Years Experience):
Background: I’ve been playing for 15 years. My academic studies focus heavily on Jazz, giving me deep technical facility, but I’ve spent the last year playing in several US-based bands across a massive range of commercial styles.
Genres: Tight Hip-Hop/RnB pockets, high-energy Pop, heavy Indie Rock, and Funk/Jazz.
The Vibe: Click-ready, fast learner, locked-in pocket, and great live energy.
? PIANO / KEYBOARDS:
Background: Berklee-trained with a strong foundation in Jazz theory and contemporary styles.
Capabilities: Perfect for background cocktail/lounge Jazz for afternoon drinks receptions, or locking down full Pop/RnB/Soul party sets on keys. Strong sight-reading, chart reading, and improvisation.
? RELIABILITY & LOGISTICS:
Fully Mobile: I have my own pro gear and I have a full drivers license. I can easily travel anywhere across Essex, into central London, or around the South East.
Professional Attitude: 100% reliable, zero drama, and I turn up knowing the material inside out. I can adapt to any dress code.
If your regular player has summer holidays booked, gets sick, or you just need a high-caliber multi-instrumentalist to sub in with zero rehearsal, drop me a message!
