Hello, and welcome to the site. Please leave me a comment if you like it!!
Hi! my name is Gary Walmsley and I play drums. With over fifteen years experience in a studio and live environment, I could be the drummer for you!
Specializing mainly in the Pop/Rock and Metal genres, I run my own rehearsal/recording facility in Birmingham city centre and have shared the stage with such acts as The Feeling, Editors, Spider Simpson, Purnice Brothers, Ricky Warwick (The Almighty), Jeff Scott-Soto (Journey), Pat Torpey (Mr Big), Richie Kotzen (Forty Deuce, Poison, Mr Big), Danny Vaughn (Tyketto), The Kooks, Andrew WK, Pete Way (UFO) and many more...
Back in 2002, I qualified as a Drum Teacher and became the UK Manager of IDS drum school. Based in Birmingham, I gained valuable experience in all aspects of drums, teaching and performing over a 3 year period. Currently, I am performing with 'The First Seven', singer/songwriter 'Gary Nock' and Ibanez guitar endorsee 'Steve Smith'. Please see the recent work page for more.
I am also a intergral part of the production team that organises the annual Drumfest events. Winning the Rhythm Magazine readers poll event of the year award for the past four years running, the Drumfest features the worlds best drummers and is collectively the largest drum clinic in the world today.
Some of the drummers I look up to and have insipred me over the years are: Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), Phil Collins, Carter Beauford (Dave Matthews Band), Lasr Ulrich (Metallica), Buddy Rich, John Bonham, Terry Bozzio, Virgil Donati, Jose Pasillas (Incubus), Ed Toth (Vertical Horizon), Stumpy Munroe (Almighty), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Danny Carey (Tool), Tommy Lee, Vinny Paul (Pantera)... to mention a few.
