Julian Keeble - Drums and Vocals
Having played in various bands since my early teens,
I think I have covered most musical genres at some time or
another.. My early influences were vocal harmony bands like The
Four Seasons, The Beach Boys, and the Four Freshmen, but equally
I loved early blues and soul and I believe this strange mix is
still very evident in my playing and singing today
My first drum kit was a fairly old Ludwig Super Classic. It
sounded better than it looked and though I treated it with great
respect I would regularly be found repairing something during a
break instead of relaxing with a cold beer. I have since used
Pearl kits and my beer intake has increased amazingly!. I
currently play a Masters Maple Custom on stage while for
practice (yes you DO still need to practice my little drum
buddies!) I play a Pearl BLX.
I am very passionate about drumming and I would like to think
that my passion has helped persuaded a few sceptics that a drum
kit is a “real” instrument and has encouraged others to play the
oldest instrument in the world!
