Just some videos of me playing drums with one of my favourite bands and quite visibly having an absolute moment in every song.

I got kicked out of a Deaf Havana gig when I was 17 for having a shot of jäger that someone bought me. Thought I was going to prison.

Drums are just absolutely mint aren’t they and it’s mad that I get to do things like this.

Thanks to James and Matty for having me, to the crew for being absolute cheerleaders and Luke for being on tour so the stars could align (and being an absolute beast with massive shoes that I tried my hardest to fill)

I'm lucky to have some wonderful regulars in the shop and in the studio.

One person who is in the studio weekly is fellow Fromie @jamesporterdrums. He’s always recording, remote tracking, practicing or rehearsing (he’s a busy lad).

He shares a love of vintage drums, as well as existential conversations, so it's a pleasure to see him every week. He is also a 'genuinely cracking fella'.

Please check out and follow his Insta - @jamesporterdrums to see a very talented drummer playing some lovely drums. You may recognise the recording space/kits on some of his videos ☺️

James and I like to have a little drum jam from time to time, so this week we thought we would record some of it for you 🥁

Ludwig 60s super classic and a Gretsch 70s/80s concert tom beast.
