I am Jay Bagnall, an experienced and seasoned drummer A B O U T M E from Dublin, . Playing drums since I was seven years old has allowed me the opportunities of touring the world in venues big and small, record on numerous studio albums and EP's, appear on national television and radio, and collaborate and appear alongside artists and peers I admire.

I play drums with passion and precision - playing for the song and showing my technical ability when necessary. Music is my life, and I treat it with the utmost respect, always remaining professional and giving the best performances I can. I work as hard as I play and pride myself on my work ethic and ability to adapt when needed. The music I play is generally heavy and loud, however I can play quieter music, some of which I write myself.

Currently I am finishing off the recording process for I Am A Car Crash's debut album, beginning the recording process for Paranoid Visions' newest album, playing drums in renowned AC/DC Tribute Act Whole Lotta Voltage and Motorhead Tribute Act Motorheaders, and planning a world tour with ex- Crass member Steve Ignorant for 2020.

M e d i a & Q u o t e s

"He's like Animal from The f*cking Muppets." Steve Ignorant, ex-Crass

"He is a powerhouse drummer, but is also very tasteful. He has great technique and at times when watching him it's as though his drums turn into his limbs he is so focused." Scott Preece, drummer for GBH

"... prodigious percussion which has influenced some heavier tendencies, sounding free yet meditated, he moves from abandon to [precision] with ease." Ray Burke, Louder Than War

"What an amazing talent he is, playing with such passion and intention. He's a treat to watch as a player, technically brilliant, and a bloody nice guy to boot." Johnny Boyle, Head of Drums at BIMM, Dublin

"A king of rhythm." Stephen Byrne, Golden Plec

"Jay is one of the most solid and consistent drummers that I have come across. He's a gem in the studio, playing exactly what a Producer wants to hear, the right part at the right time. Always on the click with near perfect execution. If you're thinking of having him on your project he'll perform every time - on time." Robin Ball, Producer

"Possibly one of the best drummers in Ireland with I Am A Car Crash and Paranoid Visions. Saw him originally with Liz Is Evil many moons ago. The guy is unbelievable on the drums, animal drummer." Glesson Luke, Booking Agent
