Craig Walker on SoundBetter

Playing drums since I was 5, I’ve developed enough groove and feel to collaborate with any genre. I love all styles and playing with a diverse artistry comes naturally. I’m easy going, humble and love the heck out of playing new music so please get in touch if you want next level drums on your upcoming project

I often joke that I never chose to play drums, the drums chose me. I’ve always had the ability to play but since becoming serious in my teens (I’m 40 in 2025) I’m always striving to improve and maintain my ability. I offer top level drumming at an excellent cost. I’ve recorded several albums and am about to record two new albums for AOR band Ten. I am extremely flexible and open to constructive criticism based on giving you exactly what you want. I love playing live and putting as much personality into the music as possible, developing chemistry with fellow band mates as the more fun we have onstage, the more the audience resonates with us. Also I love the recording process, crafting the album and creating a piece of art that will inspire the listener. There’s no genre I won’t touch as it all has its place but I have a lot of experience in the rock and metal world but adore playing funk, hip hop, prog, you name it, I’m game. I have a Pearl Masters BRX in midnight fade - a classic kit and I proudly endorse Soultone Cymbals. Music for me is all about feel and groove. That’s what leaves a lasting impression and I put my heart and soul into every note and hit. Hit me up if you’re interested in hiring me for your next project as I’d love to work with you! Fave drummers are Simon Phillips, Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart, Steve Gadd, and Lars Ulrich (steady now ha!)
