I started playing at 14 and began lessons at 16. I then studied music at college were I got into my first bands. I played the 02 Academy in Liverpool and The Brindley Theatre in Runcorn. In 2010, I moved to London to study music at The University of Westminster. I spend 4 years in London as a session player, recording and performing with various unsigned artists. I was also in several bands. More recently, I have worked with music producer Gary Stevenson (Go West, Rick Astley, Beverly Craven) and have continued my tuition with Elbow founding member Rick Jupp. I am also now the permanent drummer for singer songwriter Jenny Colquitt. In February and March next year, we will be on a UK tour which I’m very excited about. As well as Collision Drumstick, I also use Soultone Cymbals.
