Drummer & vocalist from Caroline Springs, Melbourne looking to connect with musicians in the alt/rock scene. Grew up on Paramore, BFMV, Silverchair, and a healthy dose of Aussie pub rock. That mix shaped my sound and energy.
over 20 years on drums: tight timing, dynamic feel, and a blend of power and groove. Vocally I sit in the upper range modern rock space — clean, emotional, and able to add light grit. Comfortable singing while drumming.
Looking for people who value chemistry and vibe over perfection. If you’re into modern alt rock with some Aussie rock attitude and a bit of metal/punk energy, we’ll get along. Mob no. 0431974510

Influences
I’m shaped by a mix of Paramore, Bullet for My Valentine, Silverchair, Evanescence, Foo Fighters, and the classic energy of various old school Aussie pub rock groups. Grunge has also had a strong influence on my sound — especially the emotional weight and raw edge of the 90s and post?grunge era. I pull a lot from 2000s alt/pop?rock, post?grunge, and punk?influenced modern rock too, and that whole blend defines the way I approach both drumming and vocals. My role Models are Hayley Williams and Dave Grohl

EQUIPMENT
I run two full 5?piece Pearl Forum Series kits with added cymbals and double kick setup of the same make and model. My main kit lives in the garage, fully set up and tuned for everyday playing, writing, and practice. My second kit stays packed in travel bags and is kept ready for rehearsals, jams, and playing anywhere outside home. I also own a partial third Tama kit in semi?working order, plus two cowbells for different tones and accents
