Teenage tympanist launches smartphone app for avid drummers
The DrumHead app for the iPhone and iPod Touch is the result of a year’s work by Fergal Eccles from Montenotte, who has been playing drums since he was 11. The transition-year student at Ashton Comprehensive School had more than his 16th birthday to celebrate this week as the feature for beginner and pro drummers went online.
“I’ve played drums for a long time and my brother Colm said to me about a year ago I should combine that with my interest in computers to make a phone app,” he said.
