About Me

Hey people! Thanks for checking the page out. I've been playing drums since I was 5 and have performed in many venues across the UK including Birmingham Symphony Hall, Royal Festival Hall, National Television to name but a few. I also play a wide range of percussion instruments including Djembe in an African drumming group called 'Drumvoice Orchestra' and also the guitar and piano. I enjoy to write songs and have just joined an Indie/Alternative group called Wasted Saints www.myspace.com/wastedsaintsmusicI have also recently completed my PGCE and am now a fully fledged teacher.
