Hi, I'm a Drummer and Percussionist just finished from high school at Sheldon College and have been playing since a young age. Over my time I have developed plenty of skills and had lots of experiences in professional scenery of performances. I have great confidence and have the ability to produce a great sound out of the kit whilst being solid and having great feel. I know most of the essential grooves and can read charts, improvise and/or adapt to calls by ear. Over the years I have gained plenty of experience in concerts, musicals, competitions, and stadium-like events. I also have experience using in-ear monitors as well as wedges and stages set up at professional levels. This year I have played in the Redlands Performing Arts Centre to play heaps of shows for the musical, We Will Rock You, flown down to Melbourne to compete at national level at the Australian Percussion Eisteddfod, Battle of the Rock Bands most outstanding drummer award, Legacy Bishop Award at Arts Academies, and many more. My music teachers, private lesson teachers and sound director have been advising me to continue playing after school so I want to give it a shot being a session drummer or playing gigs, or even further.
