David Oliffe

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Olliffe is the former drummer of The Vines. During the recordings of the band's debut album, Highly Evolved, Olliffe left citing creative differences with band management and the albums producer, although it was reported on the band website that "he didn't enjoy the touring lifestyle"

Before leaving, Olliffe had already recorded drum tracks for the songs "Highly Evolved", "Autumn Shade", "Outtathaway", "Sunshinin", "Homesick" (outro only), "Country Yard", "Mary Jane", and "1969" (which he also co-wrote).

Olliffe was also the drummer for Sydney's Theredsunband, however he is credited as "David O'Leaf" in the official site bio. He played with the Sydney outfit after Theredsunband's first drummer Kate Wilson left the band(formerly of The Null Set and current drummer in The Laurels). Theredsunband's current line up does not include O'Leaf/Olliffe, who left shortly before the band recorded their first album "Peapod".
