About

One of the best known and most renowned drummers in the world Mel Gaynor has sold over 60 million records during his 35 years with Rock superstars Simple Minds.

Although Mel is best known with arena and festival audiences around the world for his time with Simple Minds, it's perhaps surprising to many of his fans that he's also had a shining career as a session musician most notably with guitar gods Brian May, Gary Moore, and the likes of Elton John, Lou Reed, Tina Turner, Meat Loaf, Samson, The Pretenders, Jackson Browne, Little Steven, Robert Palmer, Joan Armatrading, Incognito, Imagination and Light of the World to name but a few of the luminary bands and solo artists Mel has worked with. Mel is now embarking on a solo career with a self-penned and vocal led album 'Come With Me' released on the legendary Marquee Records on 10th May 2024.
