As well as guitar he has been singing and screaming/roaring for over 8 years. Dosey composes and writes the songs for the band along with their amazing input that contributes to the end result. Jimmy has been playing drums for 13 years, starting at the age of 5 on a kit made of lego boxes. Since then he has played in several competitions and won achievements such as placing 3rd in Drumtek's "Australia's Best Up & Coming Drummer Competition 2000”, and participation in the finals of Billy Hyde's 11th Annual Drummer's Playoffs 2001.
