Been living in the UK for years where I played many genres of music. Lots of session experience and costant live work. I have worked with many great producers and musicians in all genres
Currently with a Rock/pop covers band called Blink Of An Eye. Check out blink of an eye band uk on FB. I was a founder member of Irish rock band No Sweat in the 80's.

EQUIPMENT
I have used electronic drums for at least 15 years. I build my own shells and use Diamond triggers.
I use a Roland TD50X with multiple downloads.
Roland digital snare, Hats and Ride.
Roland crash cymbals.
I use an Alesis Strike Multipad for percussion sounds ans SFX. I also run percussion loops so playing to a click is no issue.
My kit is run through an LD 2.1 sound system for stage monitoring and small gigs. I also send a feed to the main mixer for front of house.
I use a Sure head mic for BVs and at the moment monitor through a headphone system.
To reassure those who think acoustic drums are best, all the videos and audio tracks uploaded are using my equipment and my sound and the control of it are highly praised.
