Hey Guys! I am a drummer from Manchester England. I’m 25 and have been playing around eight years now and it’s become a life study/obsession. Ive always played music in some form or other and have been playing in bands for as long as I remember. I love all music and venture to play as much of it as is physically possible.
I’ve had the honor of playing and recording with a lot of awesome players on the Manchester circuit...among them are:-
~Shiny B
~Kev Duffy
~Pancho Ballard and the Banditos
~Kristyna and The Truetones
~Thin Red Line
~The Bogtrotters
~Pete Frampton and The Escape Committee
~Morranon
~Albino Cory
~The Dave Speakman Quartet
~Devils Dance
~Green Hot Clover
~Killane
~S.U.Big Band
~Grooveship
~Gandhi’s Revenge
~Skank
~Hughie Thomas... and many more!
I play in any style and love how they all have their own little querks and characters. It’s a challenge to try to create all of these different feels and sounds and fulfilling if you manage to pull them off.
I also love to record and have taken part in a lot of sessions for various people. It’s great having the opportunity to listen back to your playing so that you can iron out the wrinkles. I love being a session player because it is always interesting and i think it stops you developing bad habits.
All the tracks on the player are of bands that i’m currently playing/recording with. The tracks feature me on drums and on vocals for some of them and i hope it offers a good demonstration of my abilities. Obviously i’m available for work if i’m free. You can contact me through this web site or e-mail me at TGDrumroll@Hotmail.com or even come down to one of the gigs meet face to face.
Have fun! .T.

Wanted to let you know about the latest Indie Elf blog, “Publicity Help Going CHEAP!” WARNING: This particular blog will probably only be of interest to indie musicians who need some good press and don’t have a lot of extra money.
But everyone else can come take a look at the cartoon versions of me, Nomad and Damien. Funny!!
