Robbie Maddix

They call me the "Son of Thunder" when i bang those drums;



I was born into a musical family with musical instruments in every

corner of our house. I was attracted to the guitar first but soon took an

interest in the bass and drums.



By the age of sixteen i was on tour in the USA playing the Drums for a

UK group.



Since then i have been blessed to have worked with and for some great

artist, with the greatest being that of Bob Marley(Exodus/Remix).



I joined the Stone Roses at the start of 1995. I had been producing and remixing tracks for record company's and management company's and had

stopped playing the drums when the Stone Roses came calling



It was amazing to have worked with Ian Mani and John and very sad to this day that we had to split.



I am now a solo performer and loving it There are no split ups!!

I really enjoy playing all the instuments myself. Its fun recording a track on the bass and then recording the drums then guits and stuff all from diffrent points of view, then the vocals and then mixing it.

It gives me an incredible buzz!!!



I hope to work with friends again one day but until then



I AM AN ISLAND AND I STAND ALONE
