ABOUT
Been playing drums in covers and original bands since early 2000s and still regularly doing the gig circuit in London and the south east.
Played rhythm and lead guitar back in the 80s/90s in an original band, touring the country in the ubiquitous knackered van and trying our best to get signed. Close...but no cigar.
I also have a basic home studio set up and am learning the ropes of recording and production. Have released a few tracks recently that I recorded and produced with local musicians.

Influences
Pretty much all rock and metal, starting in the 80s through to present day.
Was heavily influenced by NWOBHM in the 80s and also love all things hair metal. 90s was all about grunge, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam - to name a few - being massive influences.
But I'm not really that picky. As long as it rocks!
