ABOUT

Hi, I’m Jerry.
Looking for a Pop/Rock/Indie Covers band or anything along those lines!
I'm also interested in an Originals band, but working a full time job would prefer something a little more flexible and am unable to commit to anything looking to tour extensively etc. If any of this sounds good here's a little more about me:

I have been playing drums for around 20yrs now. I have a decent range of experience in a few bands, from growing up playing highschool Punk Rock bands (as most people do), recording Metal Drum Covers for Youtube, Acoustic Rock, Pop-Punk, Pop Covers bands.
My most recent gig was playing in a Rock Cover band (Under Wraps) around the Sydney/NSW region. This had me playing a couple weekends a month, playing 50+ paid shows at both pubs and private events from 2016-2019.

I have since moved to Brisbane (Springfield area) as of last year and after putting it off due to work commitments I'm keen to look into getting back into gigging again. I have continually been practising at home and taking lessons since moving to Brisbane.

I have a Youtube channel featuring some of my playing. I grew up listening to alot of heavier music so a lot of my videos reflect that. However the music I like to listen to and would prefer to perform these days is a lot more diverse.

I have experience in filling in for bands and am able to practice/learn setlists on my own without the need for regular meetup practice sessions.
During my time in Sydney I was asked to fill in for a Pop Covers band (The WIldcatz), learning 30+ song setlist within a week and playing the gig without a rehearsal. This was a great challenge but also very rewarding and I went on to play a few more shows with those guys throughout that year when available.
I also have experience playing to a click track and backing track live, which is how I performed in most of these bands.

I have a full setup of professional gear, 1x Standard size kit/Cymbals etc, 1x Smaller Practice/Cafe gigging style kit, and am able to transport all my own gear to and from gigs.

Hopefully I’ve listed enough info here. Please feel free to hit me up with any questions.
