Drummer

Huntingdon

I first picked up the sticks at the age of 10, having previously being trained classically on Piano. I have been addicted to the drums ever since, and went on to obtain a degree in Professional Musicianship at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music. Since then I have had a wealth of experience playing and recording with multiple function bands and original artists. Whatever the musical setting, you can expect reliability and a great work-ethic from me.

Bethany Jane & Bro came and played at a family social event for my workplace. Leading up to the event, Bethany was really helpful and worked with us to make sure all the details were taken care of and that we had nothing to worry about. Then at the event, the music was great, with a wide selection of music being played. The volume and tempo was perfect for our event, which was down to both of them working out our needs. A big thumbs up from us and I would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone!

Perfect for our wedding. Came highly recommend from an entertainment specialist who knows......They offered a full and changing variety of entertainment throughout the day. A vast musical repertoire of different styles to suit as the day progressed....., We chose acoustic for sessions in the sun with the champagne. Electric then suited the disco later on. No separate disc music was required either, they happily filled in gaps between their sets with prerecorded music of our choice. We have to say how professional they were. There early so the music played exactly when required. Happy to stay right to the end. Very friendly and generous, exuding a happiness that really added to our day! They deserve every success!

I perform with Galen on a regular basis for many different kinds of events, parties and weddings. He is a fantastic percussionist, and extremely professional. I always enjoy hearing him perform and love what he adds to the music. Everyone is always on the floor dancing when he's involved! Being able to quickly pick up the beat to any tune I throw at him is amazing.
