“I have been drumming and providing percussion in various bands for around 14
years now. I began in a band called ‘10:51’ playing various gigs around Ayrshire
and Glasgow and subsequently joined ‘Starstudded78’ - who were amassing a large
following across Ayrshire. We played various gigs across Britain, including a show in
Hay-On-Wye, Wales, for legendary music industry executive Alan McGee (discovered
Oasis). My biggest compliment came from Alan McGee at that show who said about
my drumming, while addressing the crowd after our performance - ‘Scotland has
always produced excellent drummers.’
Nowadays, I am a science teacher and play in one of Ayrshire’s most well known function bands ‘Rogues Gallery’ as well as provide percussion for ‘The Heeby Jeebys”
