SESSION DRUMMER – EARLY INFLUENCES

Paul Jones is a London based session drummer known for his versatility, solid groove and musical approach.

His personal musical taste is extremely diverse, with strong influences stemming from the late 80s rave and pop scene / 90s house scene, 70s and 80s funk and jazz funk through to early electro and hip hop into modern day dance and pop.

A MUSICAL JOURNEY

Whilst Paul was living in Manchester Jungle and Drum n Bass in the 90s was a solid bedrock of the underground scene which he fully immersed myself into, and Manchester was also where he also scored his first major gig with pop stars Cleopatra.

“We played at the old Wembley Stadium supporting The Spice Girls and to me, this felt like an extremely important turning point which led me to decide to relocate back to my hometown of London to concentrate on further exploring my love for work with singers and further develop the all important groove.”

VERSATILITY

As a seasoned touring and recording session drummer, his knowledge and experience has helped provide that all important backbone for all manor of artists including; Alison Moyet, Labrinth, Sigma, (x)Propaganda, Spacek, Alison Limerick,  Mica Paris, Cleopatra, Leee John, Rodney P and Boney M. Josh Milan (USA), Tkay Maidza (Australia), Rahsaan Patterson (USA), the incredible Bamboo Manalac from the Philippines and the late / great Don Blackman (USA).
