I ALWAYS FEEL THE MOST CREATIVE IN THE STUDIO

Ever since I started playing the drums I have been in the recording studio. From home demos to recording on hundreds of songs I love the creativity of being a studio session drummer.

I have worked on projects with artists from the U.K, the U.S.A, Australia and all corners of the globe and my recordings have been heard by millions of people worldwide.

No matter the project I bring my unique creativity and song-driven style to your music.

I can also offer remote recording from my studio in Edinburgh should you wish to work over distance.

I’m working with Dave, recording my first album. He is a great drummer, but much more than that and I really value his input to the material and the recording process. He is always well prepared for sessions with detailed notes and questions, he uses his overall musicality to contribute to the development of the material. He’s a great musician and collaborator and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone

Terry Stevens, Owner – Anvil Studios

Dave has done several fabulous recording sessions at Anvil Studio. He is always prepared, punctual and has plenty of background knowledge of what gear to bring, what clever techniques to use to get the most out of the gear here and what records well etc.  

In addition and most importantly, he has a feel and insight that is super-useful, because he provides a range of ideas for an artist to choose from, gets them down flawlessly in only a few takes, but somehow manages to also include features in his drum track that become useful long after he has left.  For example, he might overdub a separate tambourine track to add momentum from a particular stage in a track and I often find certain accents and fills can inspire production ideas much later-on in a session after Dave has left.  In short, he really brings a song to life.

I’ve been working with Dave over the past couple of years on an album project and development of related live arrangements. Not only is Dave a highly accomplished and versatile drummer, but he also possesses a great musical mind and has an intuitive feel for what a song needs. His insight and skills have been invaluable. Dedicated, hard-working and always looking to bring improvements. A true pro.
