About Me
Hello, my name is Damon. I perform and teach drumset in and around Nashville Tennessee. A little bit about my background: I started banging on pots, pans, furniture; anything to create a rhythm, when I was very young. Thankfully, my parents bought me my first drumset when I was fifteen, so I could go get some lessons. Shortly after I started a local band with some friends. We played parties and practiced in a chicken coup we converted into a band room. From there we started playing clubs and I began my musical journey. Over the course, of these thirty years; performing in bands and fifteen years teaching privately, I can say there is not much that I have not seen or experienced on stage or in a practice room. I have had the honor and privilege of performing and studying with great musicians. Each experience, coupled with my desire to practice and improve day after day, has greatly enhanced my insight and effectiveness as a teacher and as a musician. Of course, learning and progress never end, if you are lucky. I have a passion for and enjoy very much assisting developing drummers overcome obstacles on their path to grow as musicians. I hope to see you in the studio.

What to expect in my Drum Lessons

Beginner - Intermediate - Advanced

Each lesson is tailored for each student, taking into account their goals, weekly progress, and available practice time. Students will learn how to streamline their practice time to fit their needs and daily schedule. We will draw from a wide range of resources-recordings, method books, and so on-always striving toward a high degree of musicianship. Also re-enforcing the idea that music is a form of self-expression and is an art form with plenty of room to be yourself. Through patience and persistence, the student will discover the joy of communicating musically. Lessons may include music theory, metronome studies, sight reading, and guidance how to avoid injury.
