‘The Dude’

Hermon

Drums

The twin turbocharged, 3 cylinder, 2 litre monster engine of The Nips rhythm section, The dude is both bull in a China shop and Ballerina when it comes to Hickory on skin interaction.

Reliable as an atomic clock, smoother than Barry White in a silk dressing gown and harder than 2 blue diamonds, The Dude drives the band musically and in rehearsals.

When he’s not The Dude he’s sometimes known to the band as Pol Pot for his uncompromising attitude in practice!
