Teenage drummer (13) wows crowd when he performs with band Boomin on stage at Burnley's Ighten Leigh Club
A teenage drummer stole the show when he was invited onto the stage at a Burnley club to play with the band.
Fletcher Boot (13) accompanied the band Boomin on the iconic Nirvana hit, Smells Like Teen Spirit, much to the stunned delight of revellers at Ighten Leigh Social Club.
Watching on were Fletcher’s proud dad, Gareth Boot and stepmum Katie Holden.
Katie said: “Fletcher absolutely smashed it. When the band asked him if he wanted to play he didn’t hesitate for a second.
“He is very talented and creative and loves trying anything new.”
Already a keen guitarist and singer, Fletcher has been learning to play the drums for two years and has his own band called Salix.
Katie added: “He has performed in school shows but never done anything like this before. So many people came up to him afterwards to congratulate him on his performance.
“We are so proud of him and really grateful to Boomin for inviting him to perform with them, especially Ed who let Fletcher use his drumkit.”
And Fletcher was invited back to the club a couple of days after his debut gig for an acoustic session where he got the opportunity to play the guitar and sing. And this time he was joined by one of his biggest fans, his little brother Jesse, who is two.
