Simon Webster has a unique range of percussion and drum kit skills, fluent in North African, South American and Middle Eastern rhythms in addition to most popular western styles.
His versatility and experience of both playing "live" and in the studio make him an ideal performer and is now recognised as a Master Drummer.

With top World Music artists such as Natacha Atlas, Yasmin Levy and Abdullah Chhadeh, he has toured the world and played major venues such as the Royal Albert Hall and the Sydney Opera House. Combining both this wide range of influences and capacities in the recording studio, Simon had recently released a series of percussion and drum loops with UK company "Loopmasters".
