Graham
Graham has been playing drums since the beginning of time!!! Joining his first band at the age of 16yrs in 1966. Nothing scares him now as he lived through the 60's!!!
Grew up listening to Jimi Hendrix, Kinks, Cream and the such likes. Then moved through on to Curved Air, Vanilla Fudge and The Guess Who. This moved through into ZZ Top, Thin Lizzy, Led Zep, Deep Purple and Aerosmith. (Unfortunatley he is still a fan of Status Quo)!!! His current favourite albums are Running Wild - Airbourne and Back in Black - AC/DC.
Graham is married to Cheryl, and works as a HGV Driving Instructor for Gatewen Training in Wrexham. He has been playing drums for over 40yrs. (but has been known to occasionally stop for meals and drinks ;) )
His previous bands include The Facts (1960's), Reflections, Past Present, Beats Working, Rough Justice. Also part time drummer for Blueberry Hill, Shadoogi and Stars and Stripes. Played at the Royalty Theatre, Chester backing the Black Abbots. Russ Abbot was a good drummer aswell as a comedian.
Main influences include John Bonham (Led Zepplin), Ginger Baker (Cream) and Neil Peart (Rush). But his main influence and role model is Animal (muppets)!!!
