SESSION DRUMMER FOR LIVE GIGS, TOURS AND STUDO WORK

Looking for a reliable, versatile drummer for your next tour, live show or recording session? I’m Gary Gilmour, a professional session drummer with over 20 years of experience across multiple genres, from pop and rock to metal, folk and acoustic singer songwriter work.

Whether you need someone for a full tour, a last minute dep gig, a recording session or playback based live shows, I can step in, learn your set quickly and deliver a solid, professional performance every time.

My Experience

I started gigging at the age of 13 and have since gone on to perform all over the world. I’ve toured internationally, played major festivals, filmed music videos and performed live on TV and YouTube. Some of the events and festivals I’ve appeared at include:

  • SXSW in Austin, Texas
  • Muse Expo and Global Rock Summit in Los Angeles
  • MIDI Festival in Shenzhen, China
  • Music Matters in Singapore
  • Belladrum, Celtic Connections and XpoNorth in Scotland
  • The Great Escape Festival in England
  • Indie Week in Ireland

Session work has taken me from sweaty club stages to massive outdoor festivals. Playing live has always been my passion. Drumming has brought me incredible opportunities and memories I never imagined possible when I was growing up.

 

Why Hire Me

I’m known for being fast to learn, calm under pressure, and easy to work with. I know a wide range of popular songs and I pick up new material quickly. I dep regularly for wedding and function bands, cover artists, and original acts across the UK.

I’m comfortable playing to a click track, running playback sessions from a laptop or sample pad, and adapting to complex show requirements. I always bring a professional setup, using top level drums, cymbals and hardware to suit the gig. I’m fully mobile, with my own transport and a full UK driving licence.

 

Let’s Work Together

If you need a solid, adaptable drummer for an upcoming gig, session or tour, I’d love to hear from you. Get in touch to check my availability or talk through the details of your project.
