About Me

OTHER TUNES TO FOLLOW SOON!!!!...................Hi there and welcome to my combined drumming and acoustic music page! These two things are the loves of my life! I've been writing songs since I was 18 and have been hooked ever since. These songs are the lastest things I've been working on though you can hear some older stuff at www.paulmallyon.co.uk. Have a listen and let me know what you think!Drumming has been an affliction since age 10 with my first gig at 11 which was very scary indeed! I love any style of trap bashing from Latin and Jazz to hardcore metal and have studied with tutors Alan Cox and Bob Armstrong who kicked my butt into shape! My favorite drummers are: Steve Gadd, Vinnie Colaiuta, Terry Bozzio, Maurice White, Harvey Mason, Keith Carlock, Chad Wackerman, Mike Portnoy, Matt Cameron, Danny Carey, John Robinson, Stewart Copeland, Billy Cobham, Rob Ellis, Richie Hayward and Tony Williams.To date I've played and recorded with: Confuzin' Jack (funk metal) The Joff Winks Band (Bowie meets Steely Dan) The Antique Seeking Nuns (Zappa inspired fusion) Outcryfire (hardcore metal) YT (RandB) This layout was made by Awesome Layouts By Katie layout made by: Awesome Layouts by Katie Myspace Layouts + Myspace Graphics
