James currently enjoys being part of the local live music scene playing with local pop/rock/blues covers bands.
Having experience with working with people with learning difficulties and special needs, James also worked professionally for the NHS in this field incorporating drums into daily sensory and therapeutic activities finding this extremely rewarding.
