Back at the beautiful Victoria Hall in Stoke. #darrenashford #drummer #drummerlife #ukdrummer #meinl #vicfirth #mapex #ontheroadagain #gretschdrums #drums #sabian

This is last weeks gig @farnhammaltings with Desperado, the Eagles tribute gig I’ve been playing with for the past few years. A nice play, great songs. #darrenashford #ukdrummer #drums #drummerlife #meinl #mapex #vicfirth #bimmbirmingham #icmplondon #eaglestributeband

Here’s a few old photos. The first two were taken at a Sunday lunchtime jazz session at Aylesbury Civic Centre back in 1987. My Dad was my champion and bought drinks for the resident drummer while I sat in. Happy days! Check out the awesome Gretsch kit! The last photo is at an awards ceremony at Lord Williams’s Lower School in Thame about the same time. To this day, nothing’s changed, I still love to play! #drummerlife #ukdrummer #darrenashford #icmplondon #bimmbirmingham #bimmlondon #gretsch #gretschdrums #meinl #vicfirth #sabian #mapex #drums #music #dadsmyhero

It was a pleasure to invite the great Ralph Salmins @ralphsalmins to the @icmplondon to deliver a masterclass to my 3rd Bmus drummers on Big Band playing. Always great to see someone at the top of their game openly sharing their knowledge and experience with up and coming musician. Thanks Ralph, just brilliant! #icmplondon #drumming #drummerlife #darrenashford #drumteacher #inspiration #sabian #mapex #vicfirth #bigband #prodrummer #ukdrummer

Fantastic street art at the Custard Factory next to @bimm_birmingham #bimmbirmingham #drumming #drummerlife #darrenashford #drumteacher #mapex #meinl #vicfirth
