About Me

Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, I have grown up with the rock'n'roll lifestyle. My father, a muso of some 30 plus years, has subliminally played a big influence in my life, and my love for music. I, although decided not to dumb down to bass guitar..but to pick up drums... after a while they got too heavy and I had to put them down again... but once I started playing the drums, it seemed like I finally had some sort of talent i could hone. My brother took all the sporting geans, at least I got something! So I wont tell my whole life story. As to now, I've had experience in some originals bands, have played over 100 live shows in pubs & clubs. My first original band "Flying Keido" Supported acts like The Choirboys, The Radiators until it ended mid 2002. After a long break I got involved with another original band "BluestoneRed" which showed great potential, our debut gig was supporting The Angels and we recorded an EP and supported The Screaming Jets and The Radiators plus headlined our own little shows. You can tell I love my Aussie pub-rock. Mid last year however, i left the band and am now pursuing some personal goals. In the last 2 years i was lucky enough to have fulfilled a major life goal, and that was playing drums for The Radiators (my father's band). Currently, Im playing with my dad, Geoff Turner and guitar pro Glen Farina. It's called "GTR" its been a rock history lesson for me as it is a 60's and 70's rock bonanza with our own rockin versions of Creedence, The Stones, Beatles, Easybeats, Chuck Berry etc etc. Toatally rocks and grooves! While inbetween gigs, my day job involves managing a mens/ladies clothing store which keeps me busy... well that's it... not all of it... but enough for now.covetarget=newBluestoneRed
