Siân Monaghan on SoundBetter

UK Americana Awards 'Instrumentalist of the Year' 2020. Current drummer for The Wandering Hearts and Stick in the Wheel (Americana/Folk) Credits include: Jessie Buckley (Wild Rose movie 2019), She Drew the Gun, China Crisis, Fink, as well as BBC/BFI film soundtracks.

Hi, I'm Siân. I work full time in London, England as a drummer and percussionist and record remotely from my studio in North London. I use a range of microphones to get a creative sounding drum track, and spend time choosing the correct drum kit and cymbals so it will sonically sit perfectly with the other instruments on your track. I come from a classical percussion and folk music background, so I love blending drum sounds in this way and finding sounds that work well together. I also work with Addictive Drums making loops and programming beats which has been, for some artists, an incredibly useful creative process.

I have over a decade of experience recording and touring, and have played all over the world from small clubs to huge festivals of 30,000 people. I also have a lot of experience with recording and have worked in studios all over the UK, learning about drum sound for the past 15 years.

I am passionate about what I do and love meeting new people through music. Hit me up using the contact button and I'll look forward to working with you!

    Sian was fantastic to work with. I had a special project in which I wanted her to make a series of clips of her drumming for a video. She really did a fantastic job nailing everything that I needed. A real pro. Highly recommended.
