Instruments: Drums

I have been playing drums for over 40 years, it is truly my passion. I have performed in several bands over the years with a main focus on the rock genre. I did play for two seasons with a local jazz band as well. I consider myself to be versatile as far as music styles, however, my main experience is with rock drumming. A few years ago I considered the idea of teaching what I know to others. Read More

I have toured the country with Peter Frampton and others and have played big concerts including Madison Square Garden. I took lessons from several different drummers including Sonny Igoe.

So I make sure that all my students have a good time, they enjoy learning and that I give them the tools to succeed. Read More
