SO MUCH NEWS coming down the pike this week!
First of all, I want to say that The DrumMantra Lesson Vault members have been working SO HARD this year. To date, we are coming up on the 45th week of the year, which means we have had 180 hour-long practice sessions together! We went completely through the Foundational Series Book, are on the final chapter of the Primary Series Book, and have been working on Section I of the new book for the past 2 months.
If you want to get your practice game together and take your playing to the next level, I highly recommend checking out the Lesson Vault Membership. Its no joke and I am there with you live on zoom 4 hours a week!
(My private lessons/consultations are $100/hr, but you can get me on a live zoom call working through the material together up to 16 hours a month for only $29!)
If you would like full access to all of the practice sessions, over 100 hours of lessons in the vault, access to the community, AND early access to the first chapter of the new book, Groove Studies with the 20th Note, you can become a member today! CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
I am honored & thrilled to have been asked to join a panel of some of my drumming heroes next week at the Percussive Arts Society International Conference in Indianapolis, USA.
I will be speaking on a panel with Greg Bissonette (David Lee Roth, Ringo Starr), Peter Erskine (Weather Report, Jaco, Steely Dan), Keio Stroud (Big & Rich), and Trey O'Toole (PASIC drumset committee).
If you are coming to the conference, make sure you swing by Room 201 at 11am EST and hang with us as we discuss how are careers have evolved since the pandemic.
(Thank you to my companies for their support: Yamaha, Prologix, Sabian, Vic Firth, Evans, Low Boy, Polynome, Moravian Percussion)
My new book, Groove Studies with the 20th Note, is almost ready for release! The digital copy is in the hands of some of the biggest names in drumming right now to review and write an endorsement, and I am diligently going through the test press for final edits as we speak!
This book is going to totally change the way drummers think and play because we are doing a deep dive into a BRAND NEW drumming topic - the 20th note!
Get ready to expand your mind, deepen your knowledge, and master this new emerging subdivision.
(Members of the Lesson Vault currently have access to the first section of the book as part of their membership)
(Lesson Vault Members have access to all of the live classes for free. The links are in the Lesson Vault under "Weekly Online Practice Session")
