Lauren Allison - Drummer

Bio:

Lauren Allison: Drummer, Percussionist and Guitarist (Available for sessions: Gigs, Recordings, Tours etc)Lauren Allison - Rock/Pop Sydney, Australia Independent Lauren Allison born May 27th 1985 fell in love with drums at an early age despite not picking up a pair of sticks until she was 15. A decade on, she has recorded/released over 15 CD’s (Australia, USA and UK), toured Australia, travelled to Europe/UK and played in front of crowds ranging anywhere between 15, and 50,000 people. After graduating from her BA- Pop Music/Performance in 06, Lauren continued to play in hundreds of Australia’s favourite venues along side artists like Rai Thistlethwayte, Porcelain and Peter Northcote. Alongside gigging 2-5 nights a week, Lauren finds herself sharing her passion for drums with her students who range anywhere from 5 to 55 and working the 9-5 at Sydney’s leading drum retailer/academy, Drum City. Taking influence from everyone she hears(not only drummers), amongst her top 10 would be: Rob Hirst, Nathan Followill, Cindy Blackman, Yanya Boston, Toby Dundas and Aaron Spears. Her diversity in styles, ranging from rock to pop from funk to blues and anything and everything in between, enables her to secure a groove at any gig handed to her. Lauren is currently performing with: Girls Of Rock, Brett Every, She Is, Lady Sings It Better, Victoria Cunningham, Salome Antoinette, The Frocks and an array of other independent artists. I manage and co-ordinate the event 'SOUNDS SEXY @' which is a music showcase roving around some of Sydney's premier music venues. The nights feature top quality original artists who are making their impact on the sydney music scene. I love and live for music. It is music which fuels my mind, heart and soul. Play for/in : GIRLS OF ROCK, THE FROCKS, SHE IS, ELISHA KEEN, VIC CUNNINGHAM, SALOME CERDA-VARGAS, BRIDIE O'BRIAN, DREAD CIRCUS, A LITTLE REVOLUTION, THE UNDERCOVERS, HELD, BY THE SEA, VEXED, DELICATE, 600ML, DADDY SAID SO, THE J STROKES, FAREWELL TO ARMS.
