About Me

I am endorsed with MEINL cymbals and I love my new cymbals!
Hello there! I'm Chris, I'm Scottish, I've lived in London for 8 years and I'm The Bishops drummer. I've had alot of fun being in The Bishops (formed 2002). Mike, Pete our manager Grant and myself have achieved alot over the last few years through hard work, lived the dream and have alot of great times to look back on. Our 2nd album 'For Now' is out and we have just finished touring Europe and the uk, was alot fun and I had a blast... ... I really love life on the road! ! I'm also looking forward to the festivals in the summer and all the touring we'll be doing autumn/winter!
I also sing and play guitar in Vivachi. I totally relish our gigs, when we are in the studio or just rehearsing.
I started playing drums in the early 90's when my brother Justin and his band couldn't find a permanent drummer, so I was like 'ok I learn to play the drums and join yer band' from then on I caught the bug and gave up Football for Rock 'n' Roll. I was brought up listening to my dads and Justins record collection, alot of which is still my favourite music today! I learned most of my musical skills from Justin and the bands we were in during the 90's, Souldrive and Jeg. Justin now fronts Scots Rock/Metal band JMC on vox and guitar.
Soul Drive Jeg
Have a listen to the tracks on my player, all the best, Chris.
