  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    "I loved all the big bands, and in all of them the drummer was the lynchpin of the orchestra, they really were. The drummers were the driving force of all those bands. I was definitely influnced by drummers that had great technique but also by bands that had great melodies like The Beatles, which was a good thing. Watching youngsters coming through on on YouTube, I've been inspired to practice and learn a few things - old dog, new tricks"
