“Kit is a fantastic teacher, and his teaching covers a wide range of styles. After studying with him over two years, I feel I’ve become a much better drummer in pretty much all aspects.”

Here is a short excerpt from the performance of Goff Richard’s “Hollywood!” by Norfolk Wherry Brass, at the London and Southern Counties Regional Contest last weekend, featuring my percussion playing on xylophone and glockenspiel.
I shall be playing xylophone and glockenspiel with Norfolk Wherry Brass at Stevenage Arts and Leisure Centre on 16th March 2013 in the London and Southern Counties 2013 Regional Qualifying Contest.
Having won the Fourth Section National Finals last year, Norfolk Wherry are now competing in the Third Section, and I am looking forward to playing the show piece.
Kit is a fantastic musician who plays drums and keyboards/piano to a very high standard! I recently worked with Kit on a short film called The Final Leaves Of Winter and needed a pianist at very short notice. Kit stepped in at last minute and played very well indeed and such a nice guy to work with also.
I am hoping to work again with Kit in the very near future either on drums or piano and anyone who needs a musician who covers all sorts of genres should get in touch with Kit Marsden now!

I’m very excited to be playing drums on a gig with the Jimmy Roe Trio, and hooking up with my good friend and ex-Cardiem guitarist Jimmy on stage again. I can’t wait to jam with Jimmy again, and to play the blues once more!
The gig itself is on Saturday 2nd February, at The Flowerpot in Derby, and is supporting well-known blues guitarist Ron Sayer Jr.

A few pictures from my recent gig with Crystal Bats during the closing night of The Tilting Sky Festival 2013, at Norwich Arts Centre.
I am now able to offer tuition over the internet, via Skype, which gives students from all over the world the opportunity to study with me. Please contact me for more information about this.
I shall be playing the piano in a jazz quartet, in a new short film entitled “The Final Leaves Of Winter”, intended for BAFTA-recognised Film Festivals this year and next year.
I shall be on-set all day this coming Tuesday (22nd January), so look out for more updates then.
It is, sadly, too late to post this with the title “Happy New Year” – but here goes…
I’ve seen plenty of people asking how 2013 can possibly live up to the wonders that 2012 had to offer. On a National scale, that may well be the case; 2012 was a Jubilee year, and was the year of a triumphant London Olympics – not to mention the fact that Norwich City Football Club survived to stay up in the Premier League.
On a personal level, however, my first gig of 2013 last weekend, with Crystal Bats, was a belter, while tomorrow sees a return to teaching at Sistema In Norwich, to which I’m very much looking forward.
There are plenty of exciting things planned for 2013 – including more shows with Crystal Bats, a debut album with Witchers (our first studio release since the Throw Your Books Into The Fire EP in July 2010), potentially the biggest ever Keyboard Camp Residential Course, and even a film appearance! So yes, 2013 is shaping up to be pretty good!
