Drum Lessons
Drummers are the backbone of every great band, but the journey begins with great drum lessons. It takes a certain personality to play the drums. There’s a swagger with knowing that you control the rhythm, feel and tempo of the songs. You have to have the right mix of soft dynamics mixed with power depending on the music. Most of all, you need to have VERY understanding parents to allow a drum set into their home considering that the average drum kit oscillates between 90-130 decibels (for comparison, the average rock concert ranges between 90-120 decibels)!
