About

I started playing the drums aged 10 having been inspired by friend and renowned session percussionist Frank Ricotti.

It was only a short time before I decided this was my career. After years of formal tuition and guidance from top session players, I started playing professionally – my first professional gig was at age 15. Since then, I've travelled, worked with many outstanding musicians, bands and people, and had fantastic experiences.


The drummers that inspire me to this day are the ones that inspired me in the beginning. Most notably, Carter Beauford (Dave Matthews Band) and Stewart Copeland (The Police) and many, many others covering a whole multitude of styles and genres.


Through the years, I have worked with numerous artists, bands and producers both in the studio and live. I recently performed with pop legend Bebe Rexha live on the Jonathan Ross Show and toured around the UK with Peter Andre on his Celebrating 25 Years anniversary tour. I've performed in one of Will Young's music videos, ' Thank You', and performed with Shane Filan (Westlife) on numerous occasions.


Working alongside legendary Producer Wil Malone (Massive Attack, Depeche Mode, Black Sabbath) on the No.1 Platinum-selling album 'Inno' for Italian artist Gianna Nannini in 2014 was a particular career highlight.


In 2011 I founded Remote Drum Recording Service, WantDrums.com, in response to the dwindling budgets that recording artists and producers were facing at the time. Since WantDrums.com's inception over 12 years ago, I have gone on to record drums on countless songs for hundreds of bands, artists and producers worldwide – remotely from my recording studio in the UK.


Particular highlights of sessions recorded out of my studio include working on Una Healy's (The Saturdays) single 'Walk Away' and recording for Megan McKenna on multiple no.1 singles.

I'm proud to say that WantDrums.com is now recognised as one of the leading drum recording services on the internet, and clients such as Sky, EMI, Channel 4 TV, HBO and many more use me for all types of drum production – be it soundtracks, commercials, albums and more.
