I am looking for work as a drummer. If its lessons you need, or if it's a drummer for your band, to either gig or record then contact me.
My experience: In 2007 I studied drums and music theory at a University called BIMM (Brighton Institute of Modern Music) (that's in England).
I studied drums to grade 8, covering most genres/styles of drumming and live performance.
After I passed my course I went on to teach private lessons as well as played/gigged and recorded; mostly for a heavy metal band called "Mantora" (*I added 3 songs I recorded with them to my profile).
I have recently moved to Canada with my partner and our 3 year son and now I am here my aim is to continue to make my living by teaching, gigging and session work. I love all music so I have no preference on the style or genre that I play.
Even tho my back ground is heavy metal and I still love it, now I'm a 36 year old :) my taste and style has definitely broadened and got more dynamic.
I want to show my son that it is possible to make your living doing what you love.
Very keen to get started over here in Canada so hit me up :)
