Normally a metal/punk drummer but have experience with many types of music. I have played with multiple touring bands ranging from indie rock to death metal. Currently play with a small 3 piece post hardcore band as well as working on a few solo projects. Nothing too serious. I have experience as a studio drummer and can record to a metronome or live. I also have recording experience both in professional and home studios. Novice to moderate skills in recording engineering. I have a great ear for music and timing. I'm a nerd at heart and have many hobbies that play into my personality and music styles. Looking to start a new project and would love to exchange ideas. I can record drums from home via ekit and send tracks via Google drive.
Outside of playing music:
I am a trained chef
I love videogame music
I restore and build Snare Drums
I build Acoustic to Electric Drums
I am pretty funny and have a fun loving personality and don't take things to personally.
All and all, I'm just a fun dude who wants to chill and play some music with like minded musicians.
I'm not paying for bandmix so if interested in jamming, message me on my insta at TheMikeSmith
