Drums, Guitar, Vocals

Having first shown an interest in drumming when he was about 6 or 7 years old, Rob would jam along with his favourite songs on a cardboard box with his mum’s knitting needles. Now 40, he has over 30 years drumming experience.

Rob was playing in bands at High School by the age of 15 and since then played in some of Wellington’s finest cover bands. The pinnacle for him was joining The Pink Floyd Experience in 1998.

Rob is a very talented musician and has an uncanny ability to learn any instrument really easily – he is an accomplished guitarist and vocalist, but his talents are far more diverse than many would realize and that is reflected in his love of fine wood and many forms of woodworking from carving to furniture making.

About 8 years ago he also began to develop a unique method for making drums and have since then developed his own handmade line of snare drums. These are a high end quality snare that have been selling successfully to professional drummers while receiving rave reviews. You can hear him use a couple of these with the Floyd Experience.

Musically Rob’s tastes range from Rock and Blues to Jazz to Afro Cuban to Dub and Reggae.
