This profile has audio of an edited medley of 2 tracks from a gig at The Derby in Los Angeles, 2008-05-28 Be warned it's recorded from the back of the stage behind the drums on a Zoom H2, so it's very drum heavy.
Learning new material and playing a gig at short notice is something I'm good at.
Some history, I'm a wee lad from Derry, Northern Ireland who moved to the US in 2001 playing with Katoorah Jayne and living now in Los Angeles, California. It all started back in Derry playing all sorts of rock covers and since then my interests are pretty much anything good that has drums in it and much that has no drums at all (see profile list of influences).
I've done a few recordings since arriving in LA, one of which (Sipo) might soon see the light of day!
I've a lot of live experience in original and cover bands from small bars all the way up to large clubs, including large coporate gigs and the university circuit. I once even dabbled in the Irish music scene.
I've some other drumming stuff I've been gathering at my site drumalicious.com.
