How long have you been drumming?
Since I was 12
What is your drumming history:
I started drumming at high school, played a little bit through college and then stopped while I travelled the world. I took up lessons with Paula Spiro when I arrived in New York in 2000, but then other interests (like playing netball for the US) started to take up all of my free time and the sticks got dropped. I actually spend more time now writing songs and playing guitar but I still have an affinity for the drums.
Describe Your Drum Kit:
Non-existent!
Favorite Drummer(s):
Cindy Blackman, Evelyn Glennie, Dom Famularo
Favourite Bands/Musicians:
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Melissa Etheridge, Billy Joel, Missy Higgins, Elton John, Boz Scaggs, James Taylor
