Drum Lessons in Southside, FL

Instruments: Drums

So my method is open to all variations of modern "stick" drums. Lessons will be adjusted to what the student wants to do. I have books to recommend like "Syncopation" by Ted Reed and "Realist Rock" by Carmine Appice. Read More

What I love most about drumming is the endless rhythms and sounds the world has to offer. Read More
