Rock + Pop Drummer for hire

Powerful, groove-driven session drummer with 20 years’ experience. Tight, song-serving tracks delivered fast. Specialist in pop & rock. Played with The Palais. Based in Dublin, Ireland, available worldwide.

Hi! I'm Simon. I'm a session drummer with 20 years of playing experience and a professional track record since 2022. I specialise in pop and rock, blending precision with feel to deliver drum tracks that support the song, not overshadow it.

I draw inspiration from heavy hitters like Tommy Aldridge and Pat Torpey & groove masters like Jeff Porcaro, Simon Phillips, and Brian Tichy, and I ensure that every project I work on is characterised by a balance of tightness and musicality. My playing is powerful, purposeful and always locked in — whether you need explosive live energy or subtle studio finesse.

I've performed with The Palais and worked with artists across Europe. I offer remote studio recording and live drum tracking upon request. Clients know I make the process easy and efficient — from the first message to the final mix.

- You are guaranteed up to three revisions.
- Typical turnaround: 3–5 days (max 1 week)
- Live Zoom sessions are available – just ask.
- I guarantee fast communication, high-quality audio and a song-first mentality.

I record in my professional studio and deliver stems ready for use in your session. I will bring your vision to life with hard-hitting drums.
