SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Hi, I’m Georgios – a graduate of Musicians Institute in Hollywood and a drummer with over 20 years of experience. I understand how challenging it can be to find a drummer who is reliable, punctual, and truly plays for the song — that’s exactly what I aim to bring to every project. Whether it’s rock, metal, blues, country, or something in between, I focus on feel, precision, and professionalism.
While my main passion is rock and metal, my experience spans a wide range of styles, from country and pop to industrial metal. I’ve performed extensively in Greece and Los Angeles at venues such as Whisky a Go Go, The Viper Room, and Gagarin 205. At 21, I also had the honor of performing as a percussionist with the National Opera of Greece.
I’m currently based between Kilkenny and Thurles and am willing to travel for the right band. Ideally, I’m looking to join a serious, committed group aiming to gig a few times a month — whether that’s a house/wedding band or a solid rock outfit playing great shows at the pub.

If what you read, see and hear feels like a good fit, I’d be happy to connect.
