ABOUT

Hi All, My name is Jason, I am Canadian drummer living in Ballarat and have been living in Australia for the past 21 years.
I am looking to find some good people to keep the music happening. I am looking to either form a group or have a group add me in. I like to play in a way that the sound becomes part of the atmosphere of the music and the room and does not over power the mood. Love seeing smiles on other band members faces and the crowd when awesome things happen. I have plenty of free time for practice / meet ups including during the week as my work is flexible. Call or text me on 0404 312 020.

Influences

Influence-wise without naming band names etc, I come from a classic / alternative rock background including in early days as my folks loved classic rock.

Most gigs that I have played in the past was mostly aussie pub rock covers and various other similar stuff.

I'm really not picky on what is being played as long as it sounds like music hahah.

It was a thought at one point to be in a very multi dimensional band that has a wide spectrum of styles and capabilities with sounds coming out that go between rocky, bluesy, funky, dancy, groovy etc but of course i'm also easy with what's happening out there.
