Tom Grennan's drummer Adam Gammage set for 'incredible' drum clinics

A drummer who played in front of thousands at Glastonbury said it was "incredible" to now work alongside his musical heroes.

Adam Gammage, from Northampton, plays in Tom Grennan's band and tours with the singer across the world.

He is soon returning to his hometown for a series of drum clinics and sessions with other drummers.

The musician said his career was "off the back of a pair of drumsticks, which is incredible".

Gammage has previously played with Rebecca Ferguson, Charlie XCX and James Arthur, before working with Grennan, who hails from Bedford.

He started playing at 14 and said he got his first paid gig at 16 years old.

"My mum and dad took me to jam sessions in Northampton and that was where I really learned," he told BBC Radio Northampton.

The drummer, who now lives in Amsterdam, will be hosting a day of clinics and a question and answer session in Northampton on Thursday, organised by local drumming school Drummers Link.

It will be alongside drummers including Andy Edwards, who has worked with Robert Plant, and drumming Guinness World Record-holder Ed Freitas.

He said: "One of the first drum shows I went to when I was younger was with Andy and Ed and they blew my mind when I was a youngster, the technicality of it all, so to work alongside them is incredible."

He will also be playing live to some his "favourite bits" from the Glastonbury set he performed with Grennan last year.

He said during the song By Your Side, which Grennan made with DJ Calvin Harris, "you get this wave of people jumping and that was when I looked out and it's like, yeah, this is really special".
