About Me

I am a drummer and play in a Garage/Psych band called The Urges. We have played throughout Europe at festivals etc...and have supported many high profiled bands such as Ocean Colour Scene, The Zutons, The La's, Kula Shaker, The Buzzcocks, The Remains and many more. We released our debut album (Psych Ward) in October of 2007. I am also backing John Murphy (Irish singer/songwriter) on his debut album. Ive played drums since 12 in various bands in which ive thrown a hand at songwriting duties. I have always been interested in songwriting but they've never realy left the four walls so I recorded a few and have realy got into the whole process. Ive been using a 12-track and what you hear are the results.
