ABOUT

The last year and a half I’ve been the drummer for COAST. In that time we’ve released two albums, one (Don’t let this be a phase) where I feature on 5 songs, and the most recent album (The Other Side) where I feature on 10 tracks. I’ve gigged in a variety of places (Soho, Camden, Windsor, Norwich, Colchester, Chelmsford etc.) with a variety of audiences, from fairly empty rooms to headlining summer festivals and playing to over 300 people.

Coast has come to an end. I’ve taught myself guitar to the point of songwriting & teaching guitar in the school I work in and I’m currently working on an album with the ex lead guitarist. Half the songs on the album being written by myself (rhythm, lead, bass, drums and vocals).

I’m very eager to build on my broader experience as a musician, songwriter and drummer. I’m open to playing an EXTREMELY wide selection of music. Very up for exploring new genres.

I work in a private school so every 4 to 7 weeks I have a 2 week break and then 4 weeks off during summer. This helps a LOT with practice and availability
