Strawberry Fields are forever!

About Me

I am a 21 year old Christian studying producing and unfortunately works at Tescos, which is a means to an end.

Anyway, One of my true loves is music. Everything that has anything to do with music I like. Drumming and piano are 2 music passions of mine. I drum for a guy called Billy Bingham in a band called Billyjon. As well as playing in a band I also produce my own music on the lines of electronica and chill. However, I want to break into Drum & Bass. I'll be releasing an EP in the next few months so keep your eyes open for it.

I see myself as a compassionate and rather easy going guy. I like going to gigs and concerts, socialising with friends and going out also play a big part in my life.

Give me a shout if there’s anything else you want to know and I'll get back to you!

Speak soon!!![LOVEMYFLASH]
