Buster Birch

Freelance drummer and percussionist

Hello and welcome to my web site. Being a self-employed freelance musician I find myself working in a wide variety of musical spheres. When performing this can include jazz, world music, classical, pop and musical theatre. When teaching this can include one-to-one lessons, workshops, classes and coaching bands or sections. Please feel free to get in touch if you would like further information about anything contained in this website.

For info on when/where I'm playing next see the "gig listings" page...
For info on some of the bands I regularly work  with see the "bands" page...

In addition to my playing and teaching commitments I also organise jazz concerts in Halstead Village Hall on the 2nd Sunday of every month. For further details please see www.halsteadjazzclub.com

I have also started work on a dedicated site for my drum teaching material at www.learnthedrums.co.uk

I am also co-director of the fantastic Trinity College of Music Jazz Summer School, a full-time one week residential jazz course for all ages which takes place at the end of July in Greenwich. Please see www.trinitysummerschool.co.uk for more info.
