I specialise in live drums and percussion for dance music, blending electronic and organic elements. Whether it's drum tracking, remixing, or full production, I collaborate closely with you to bring your vision to life. More than a session player—an artist with over a decade of experience bringing creativity and care to your music.
From Jazz House and Disco, to Afro-Beat and Techno, my strength lies in using live instruments to create dynamic beats that feel as if they were written right in the room with you.
With extensive experience in remote sessions, I offer a free FaceTime call to discuss your project and ensure everything runs smoothly from the start.
Trained in contemporary and jazz at The Australian National University and The Collective in New York, I bring my expertise in drums and percussion - along with skills in bass, guitar, and keys - into every project. My unique production style has earned me over 4 million streams and taken me around the world with my artist project, Sonny Grin.

As a versatile session drummer and producer, I’ve worked efficiently with artists across Pop, RnB, Hip-Hop, and Folk genres, and collaborated with respected labels like etcetc (AUS), Sidekick Music (FR), and Local Talk (SWE). My collaborative approach ensures every element aligns with your vision and elevates your music.
I’m not just a ‘gun for hire’, I bring the same care and attention to your project as I do to my own music. Let’s create something that not only sounds great but feels unique to you!
Get in touch, I look forward to working together.

Endorse Alec Brinsmead (Sonny Grin)- check_circleVerified
Alec is, without a doubt, one of the most skilled and hard-working musician/producers I’ve ever met. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Alec for over a decade, over which time we’ve spent hundreds of hours in the studio together, recording/writing/producing, as well as countless numbers of gigs, including internationally.
He’s extremely friendly and super committed to achieving the best possible outcome. I couldn’t possibly recommend this guy highly enough for all your musical needs!
