Carl Skidmore – Drums

I originally started playing drums at the age of 13 and helped form a school band - AXE.  Again I helped form a college band – INVOGUE with some previous AXE colleagues before joining, TEAZER MKI in 1986.  I played in Teazer spin-off ONE FOOT IN THE WARDROBE supporting the Band-Its Theatre Company.  After TEAZER MK I split I joined the MEAN LITTLE THINGS before moving south to work in London.  Since returning to the Midlands I have worked with THE ALI WRIGHT EXPERIENCE and rejoined TEAZER with Andy, Lee and Rob in 2000.
