Professional Drum Tutoring, Recording, and Online Session Drummer.

Lazycat Studios is owned by Jake Bradford-Sharp. Below is some information about him. To keep it brief, he is a professional Musician and Drum Tutor. He started recording back in 2008 and has been expanding his studio, knowledge, and skills. He has since specialized in recording drums.

Jake was born in Enfield, North London in 1992 into a creative and musical family. From a very early age he was surrounded by music; his Grandfather, the guitarist Geoff Bradford, has been called ‘a pioneer of British Blues’, and his sister is a talented singer. Jake was never in any doubt that what he wanted to do more than anything was to be a drummer.

He got his first drum kit at the age of 9, and was asked to perform by his school at many events and occasions, both as a soloist and as part of a band. Professional drum lessons fuelled Jake’s passion and honed his technique; at the age of 15 he obtained a distinction at Grade 8 drum kit for Trinity-Guildhall and was recruited by The Reasoning at the age of 16. He played his first professional gig with The Reasoning, supporting Fish at the Leamington Spa Assembly Rooms for the annual Fish Convention.

Subsequently, Jake has recorded 3 Albums, 1 Ep and 1 DVD with The Reasoning, and has performed all over the UK and Europe, notably at the inaugural High Voltage Festival 2010 (in the company of such acts as ELP, ZZ Top, Marillion and Dweezil Zappa) when at the age of 17, Jake was probably the youngest performer to grace the stage, and at 2013′s first ever HRH Prog festival. Jake’s dynamic drumming skills were applauded by readers of Classic Rock Presents Prog magazine when we was voted 5th Best Drummer of 2010 behind such luminaries as Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, Gavin Harrison, and Nick D’virgilio.

With The Reasoning, Jake has performed in Norway, toured in Europe and the UK, as well as performed at Rosfest, Gettysburg in 2011; their live album ‘The Bottle of Gettysburg’ was released shortly afterwards.In addition to his work with The Reasoning, Jake founded the alternative rock band ‘Echochain’, and is currently writing their début album and organising tours, and the promotion of, for 2015. He enjoys independent session work for producers including Andy Whitmore (Peter Andre, Atomic Kitten, Elton John).

When he’s not on the kit himself, Jake is an enthusiastic drum tutor and in his spare time enjoys playing Tabla (studied for several years alongside drums), guitar and writing / recording songs. He cites his own influences as diverse as John Bonham, Frank Zappa, Dave Grohl, Neil Peart and Marco Minnemann amongst others.

Please contact Jake via this page for more information, bookings for recording time and/or drum lessons.

"DeadSet's brand of refreshingly hearty rock'n'roll is delivered with a side of crunching riffs, deliciously dark undertones and an overriding bite that sets the London trio leagues apart from their local scene." - KERRANG!

"Flies Are Spies From Hell formed in 2004 and since then have extensively toured the UK and Europe sharing stages with Russian Circles, And So I Watch You From Afar, UpCDownC, Vessels and Maybeshewill. Theirs is a boundary-challenging form of epic and uplifting piano-led post-rock - intricate moments of beauty building up to crashing nerve-shredding climaxes. Expect energy, sweat and passion from their aggressive and emotional performances."
