Nathan has 15+ years of experience playing drums and offers lessons for all levels, from complete beginners to intermediate players. Lessons can include basic rudiments on the practice pad and snare, as well as rock, Latin, and jazz grooves on a full drum set, playing along with songs, improvisation, and just rocking out. Each session is shaped around the student’s interests and experience level with the goal of making every lesson a full hour of active playing, learning, and fun.
Our band sessions bring together young musicians in a collaborative group setting where they can learn covers, write original music, develop performance skills, and play together in a real studio environment. Each band is organized by age and skill level, with most bands built around piano, drums, guitar, bass, and voice. All musical interests are welcome, although most groups focus on rock. Sessions are 1 hour and 30 minutes, with a minimum of 3 members and a maximum of 6 per group. We guide students through classic rock covers and other songs they want to learn together, while also encouraging them to write, record, and keep developing their own music. Our studio has the instruments and equipment students need, so bringing an instrument is not always necessary. By the end of the summer, each band will have a full setlist ready to perform, and we always look for opportunities for them to play live.
