ABOUT

Looking to play drums with other people either just for fun or as a band looking to have fun (fun is important). I do play some guitar and a bit of keyboards as well. I’m not too fussy about genre and whether it’s new material or covers. I have a broad range of musical tastes from reggae to heavy rock to ambient to modular synthesis. I write and record instrumental stuff for myself (the tracks I’ve uploaded are mine with combinations of me playing drums, guitar, bass & keyboards plus a few loops and vocal samples).
I do love a solid beat with plenty of syncopation and edginess - ska, disco, funk, funk rock, new age, psychedelic, EDM, drum‘n’bass.
I work so evenings and weekends are better for me and I have a van so can move stuff around easily. I’m based on the edge of Frome.
