      Take a look at the video to see how this looks and hear how it sounds.

      Puncture Kit has performed in Europe and all across the UK. From October 2010 to June 2011, David spent 8 months in Malawi travelling to villages and communities learning, practicing and sharing musical ideas. Whilst in Malawi, he performed in villages and international school assemblies and entertained crowds with his live drumming/ electronica shows at The Lake of Stars Festival and at various nightclubs. He also provided workshops on his own street style of playing.

      Since 2008 Puncture Kit has performed at Glastonbury Dance Village, Brighton and Edinburgh Fringe Festivals and clubs across the UK.

      As a self-taught drummer, David is dedicated to the on-going study and practice of drumming and percussion and applying what he learns to his own unique kit.

      Samba is fused with Latin and Cuban dance beats, drum n bass with bossa nova, funk with hip hop and jazz and whatever pops into mind.. all played on the original busking bicycle. Puncture Kit is guaranteed to add an energetic spin for your event.

      Puncture Kit can be booked for events, live drumming/ electronica performances, school appearances, workshops and session recordings.

It's a workshop for those inspired to make original music on unique instruments..an un-conventional, fun workshop you won't forget.

      "Dave/Puncture Kit was a fantastic asset to our after-party, his ability to switch from his usual upbeat, fast - paced drumming to a more jazzy, laid back style suited our venue perfectly.  The drumming gave the party a great atmosphere throughout the night and we got a brilliant response from our guests - we would highly recommend him!"

      "....Puncture kit (Dave) was amazing! Although he did confuse the museum staff at the V&A initially, they didn't want to let him in because they thought it was just a regular bike. But once we explained, everything went off... a solid performance with lots of variety. We received positive feedback from clients and customers alike..."
