Hi I'm Nick, I'm 17 and I've been playing drums for just over 6 years now and it's become my life. I play in a few bands as well as drum for a couple of solo artists. I play with alot of energy and like to play loud! I do like to play a variation of styles from metal to soft acoustic. Maybe a bit of Jazz as well!

My Band is called the yellow sands of neptune. We are reasonably well known in our local area. Unofortunalty we didn't win BOTB but our song was chosen at the very last minute so at least we have an excuse! We are currently working on some covers and playing live.
I also have a side project, it is called Satan stole my lunch money. We hope to have a CD out soon! we are also performing at the showdown if anybody is going?
Previous Bands include
Retina
Flashlight Obsession
The Skull Flames
