Lucius Borich

Lucius Borich is an Australian musician, best known as the current drummer for the band Cog, and previously the drummer in funk metal band Juice and in The Hanging Tree. [Rhythm magazine Issue #055]

Lucius has been playing music since the age of 3. He was given his first drum kit by two of Australia's best known drummers from the 70's, Keith Barber (drummer) and Johnny Dick. [ [http://www.zildjian.com/en-US/artists/artistDetail.ad2?artistID=2799 Zildjian website] , Artist profile] Lucius's dad's band at the time was The Party Boys, with guest stars Done Perry (Jethro Tull) and Richard Clapton, who invited young Lucius to play with them. At age 14, Lucius was given the opportunity to perform and tour around Australia with the Kevin Borich Express for a year. Shortly after, he left school and decided to pursue drumming full time. He was then called upon by ex members Mark Evens (AC/DC) and Mick Cox (Rose Tattoo), to join a Rolling Stones cover band, "the Rolling Clones". They toured for a year and a half throughout Australia and New Zealand, and for the next three years, Lucius continued to play with other bands. This experience gave Lucius a reputation as one of Australia's finest and flexible up and coming drummers.

In 1998, he formed Cog with high school friend Flynn Gower. Later, Flynn's brother joined the band on bass, Luke Gower.Lucius has played on 2 album's for Cog, The New Normal (2005) and Sharing Space (2008). He has also released a number of singles and EPs with the band including Just Visiting Part One (2002) and Just Visiting Part Two (2002).

Lucius is the son of Australian guitarist and singer/song-writer Kevin Borich, and has played on many of his albums [ [http://www.kevinborich.com.au/sounds.htm kevinborich.com.au] , Sounds] , playing both bass and drums. Kevin is one of New Zealand and Australia's most respected blues/rock guitarists. His encouragement and involvement in the industry gave Lucius his first experiences.

In April 2008, Lucius was featured in Australian drum magazine "Drumscene" as the feature cover story.
