Gigsiwise, my main gig currently is with Devon based rock band ‘Swans In Flight’ (www.swansinflight.com), who as well as playing numerous festivals and theatre dates in their own right also regularly act as ‘house band’ for major music shows, including the London Bass Guitar Show and London Acoustic Guitar Show, as well as previously performing special guest and support shows for artists as diverse as Seth Lakeman, Dr Feelgood and the mighty Thin Lizzy. The ‘Swans’ have also recently (2012) been in the studio writing and recording new material in collaboration with Sony writing team Cassell ‘The Beatmaker’ and Eric Appapoulay, who have previously worked with artists such as Plan B and The Streets, and have won Ivor Novello and Guild awards for their production skills.

I've also devoted a large portion of my time to education, with me teaching Drummers of all ages and standards for the last 10 years, culminating with me currently putting finishing touches to my first tuition book due for release in the early part of the year. I am also a very regular writer/contributor for DRUMMER magazine, working alongside Jules Tabberer-Stewart (Editor) as editorial assistant to bring interviews, features and reviews on a monthly basis, as well as having my own tuition column alongside some of the finest tutors / performers in the world.

Playing wise, I love all types of music, and strongly believe in the old Louis Armstrong phrase that there are only two types of music: good & bad, regardless of style!!! Throughout my career I’ve been fortunate to play Jazz with some of the worlds finest Jazz Musicians, Rock with some of the worlds finest Rock musicians, Reggae with an actual Reggae band in St. Lucia, as well as making people dance, feel, and enjoy music all over the world, and have met many fine musicians and friends along the way……
