About Me

I am a 20 year old drummer from south London . I am currently studying drums with Bob Armstrong (and have previously studied with Colin Woolway.) I enjoy playing and listening to all types of music (varies day to day) . I am studying on the jazz course at Middlesex University (currently in my first year.)Besides the tracks on my page there are also tracks to listen to on the JAZZ FUNK COLLECTIVE (NEW DEMOS JUST UP) page and various other pages(see friends section.) I have also recently started to play percussion with Rhythms of the City (Ritmos da Cidade) , which is part of the F-IRE collective, performing Rio-style carnival samba, samba-reggae and funk. I’m always up for playing any type of music and can be contacted at:[email protected] (and/or) [email protected] very much for taking the time out to check out my page. Cheers. Chris
