Isaac is the youngest of four children and was privileged to be born into a musical family, his grandfather played piano, his mother along with her four sisters were singers in the church and his father was a casual part-time DJ. All of these musical contributions left a legacy for him to follow. 

 

As a youngster Isaac started developing his interest in Music from the tender age of 2 years old when his mother and father had discovered him constantly tapping around their home. It was because of this continuous habit, that they realised their son had an undeniable passion not only for music but, even more so for drums. At the age of 3 he got his first ever drumset.

​

As time went on, Isaac became fuelled with the thoughts of one day playing drums professionally. he always watched the drummers in his church play and was determined to one day play on that same stage too. Surely enough the time came, when after going away to youth camp with his church he had revealed, what was a secret to most people in the church, that he could play drums, even if it was with one drumstick and a felt-tip, he had a real god-given talent and a special gift. It was then at the age of 9 that Isaac was called into the worship team that he played in up to his late 20's until moving away from home to start a new journey.

 

Outside of the four walls of the church Isaac has done alot in his young career. He has been fortunate enough to perform at the same events with great christian artists from the U.K. and the U.S. These include: Mary Mary, Ron Kenoly, Trinitee 5:7 and Noel Robinson, Phillipa Hanna and the list goes on.

 

He has played for a variety of up and coming artists in the uk most notably: Live and usigned 2009 winner 'GARWE', JUMP AWARDS 2014 winner: 'DAVIDB' and TIME TO SHINE RUNNER UP: Aaron Mackinson, In the Ipswich Music he has been fortunate to play with Soul Sensation Ashton Jones, Josh Locke and The Lockerbillies and The Innerheart Band. Occasionally he performs with his Wife Christian Ambient Jazz artist 'Abbi Angus' and alongside all of that also does alot of session work, is a music teacher and a drum tutor. 

 

Isaac currently teaches Music at The Lindbergh Campus (Ispwich) and runs his own private drum tuition business, When he's not consumed with drums, he finds enjoyment in playing the piano and producing music.
