Drums: Will Hall
The back beat, always on time and in time. Erica’s 27-year-old drummer extraordinaire ensures that his chosen craft is loud and clear at all gigs.
Standard 4/4 is not part of Will's repertoire which has helped to develop the Erica sound.
In his spare time, Will's hobby is….drumming…..loud.
