ABOUT

Hi there fellow Musicians.

I am a Drummer by trade and late-learner Bassist. I love most kinds of music if played well, I have one dislike only and that's rap music, it's more poetry I think, I just can't get on with it. I have played both professionally and semi-pro too. I play Bass in a church environment, some cracking stuff there.
