Riley is Paul’s Son and the youngest member of the band. He has been playing drums from a very early age and joined The Dark Tones at the age of 11. Riley is still only 16!
When not sat behind the drums, Riley enjoys mountain bike riding and football.
Riley is always the centre of attention at our gigs, not only because he is so young, but because he is a fantastic drummer!
