Drummer. Percussionist. Vocalist.
Welcome to Fil Baker Music
Fil is an experienced drummer, percussionist and singer - and occasional actor* - and has been playing since the late 1960s. The passion has not dimmed; from Rock and Pop, through Funk and Jazz, it’s all music to his ears.
* he recently had a small (blink-and-you'll-miss-it!) role in Michael Pearce's critically-acclaimed film "Beast", also starring Jessie Buckley, Johnny Flynn and Geraldine James - the eagle-eyed may also spot glimpses of his car (the Drum Roller) during the Funeral-scenes!
If you would like to collaborate on a new or existing project, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

In addition, much groundwork has been done on the rock-trio Turtle Recoil (Confused? You will be...) which will boast a repertoire of covers and original material, in a heavier vein than that put out by Total Recall...). The band intends to be on the road soon. Developments will be reported here...
