ABOUT

Drummer and backing vocalist, was trapped in the rat race, now I am free and loving it! Formerly playing with Do Not Panic, the Hawkwind tribute, and with indy echo rock Nauseous Skies in the UK. Have a taste for live music, so would like to work with a band who can't help but have fun and laugh while your playing, but take the job serious enough to make a good tight impression. I find it easy to mix with people from all ages, especially if their into their music and sport.

Influences

Too many to mention. I appreciate all well crafted music from absolutely any genre. I gravitate towards Rock music, old and new, fast and slow. Peppers, Smiths, REM, Neil Young, Billy Bragg, Zep, ACDC, The Cult and now Hawkwind as well, I grew up on Hardcore Punk like GBH, Exploited, SNFU, COC, Crass, nofx, Offspring, Descendants, Ramones and Clash, Damned, Specials, Selector, madness and the Beat. 80's rock like supertramp, Asia, Yes, Fleetwood Mac, Toto and even Journey long before their return to fame since Glee. G&R and Van Halen. East coast rap like beastie boys and JZ feature, and recent music like Stone Roses, Oasis, the Foo, Feeder, Kasabian, and everyone from York loves shed 7, and on and on...

EQUIPMENT

I used to have a WMD acrylic glass acoustic 5 piece with Evans 2 ply coated batters, Lasers and lights which we called "The Beast"! But I will play on anything in the room when I need to. Currently nothing, but will buy and invest for a solid outfit.
