ABOUT

Hey, I'm a new drummer that likes to jam and practice. Most of all I love to write drums for original songs. So I'm particularly keen to meet songwriters and would love to listen & write to any recordings you may have.

I've also played guitar for 20 years, during which I've been in a couple of original rock bands that have gigged and recorded a bit, playing both rhythm & lead. So I know what its like to collaborate, rehearse and perform with others. I've taught rock guitar for about 8 years so I'm used to communicating with guitarist.

I'm 36, married with 2 young kids and live in Wollongong. I can't commit to anything truly serious but I'm keen to write and have fun. Currently my favorite thing is to just work out whatever sort of drumming suits the music, support & complement the bass, keep good time, not overplay and ornament the sound with a few tasteful goodies.
