I'm Rian O'Grady — a drummer and producer with 25 years of playing experience and over a decade of global touring.
I've performed at some of the UK's most respected venues and festivals, collaborated with artists across a wide range of genres, and built a career spanning live performance, studio recording, remote work and education.
Alongside live and session work, I produce music and sound design for clients ranging from independent artists to major commercial partners including Getty Images, the BBC, Airbnb, Arturia, De Wolfe Music, Bucks Music Group, Cavendish Music, Wunderland Music Library, Loopmasters, and Beatport. I work across sync licensing, original composition and sample production from my studio in London. Click here for examples of my work.
Music I have worked on has been released on labels including So Young Records, Detroit Underground, 5db Media, PRAH Recordings, Fuzz Club Records, Cartoon Records and Tag8 Music.
I am an endorsing artist for Ludwig Drums, Istanbul Agop Cymbals, Remo Perucssion, Los Cabos Sticks and Protection Racket Cases.
