Rick Henry - Drums & Percussion

About Rick

Rick has been drumming since the age of 13, he was influence by a Meat Loaf concert where John Miceli was the drummer, and both Meat and John inspired him to be a performer.

First taught by Russell Woods and more recently by Dave Hassell. Rick continues his study, despite having already received a distinction at Grade 8. Having played in bands ranging from brass, jazz, metal, rock and theatre to Symphony Orchestra, his motto is 'play anything, anytime, anywhere'.

My work ethos is equally simply "always give 100% play with passion and feeling, embrace moving out of your comfort zone, nothing is unattainable, everything is achievable."
