ABOUT
I am a solid drummer who is currently studying grade 8 trinity guildhall drums. I play in a heavy metal band called 'Skies Turn To Dust' and we regularly gig and are about to record for the first time. I am advertising for a different band because I am fairly happy with my skill in the heavy metal style of drums and wish to expand. (Apologies about the photo but it is the only one i have of me playing drums. I don't usually look like I have no idea what I'm doing :P)

Influences
Influences from every genre and style. I am a big fan of Neil Peart as well as the classic session drummers Dave Weckl and Steve Gadd; or course there are the more modern drummers such as Jojo Mayer and John Dolmayan.
I have a basic knowledge on most playing styles and am happy and willing to expand on these to adjust
EQUIPMENT
I have a 6 piece drum kit and a full set of cymbals ready to be transported. I do not have a car but am learning to drive and can be dropped to practices in Birmingham (preferably closer to Sutton/Walsal)
