About Me
Hello, I’m Thomas, but most people call me T.  I started taking private drum lessons when I was 6 years old.  Ms. Lucy (shown in my profile picture) was one of the most influential and important people in my development not only as a drummer but in life as well. I met her at 6, and we’re still friends 29 years later. After Lucy I started lessons with professors at UNT (which in those days was NTSU).  My glam band Skin Deep was getting major record deal offers, but it was 1992 when grunge took over.  So under guidance of our attorney we didn’t sign any offers, and also all of the theory of lessons became a bit of a bore to me so instead of going to UNT to study music I chose to go to UT instead.  I graduated from UT in 1997 with a degree in psychology and decided to move to Los Angeles to follow my dream.  My band broke up about a month later, but I formed a new one (Milkweed……on Itunes as River Rouge for legal reasons….and River Rouge morphed into a blue grass band after I left) and got an indy record deal and did lots of regional touring for the next 3 years.  Then I moved back to Dallas and joined JackAcid, and that’s when I met Taylor with whom we shared several bills with his band FFTN.  Next was Crossing Ellum, which was fronted by Matthew JC (Founder of emmy winning Small Guy Music and “Matthew JC and the All Stars”).  I currently play in a heavy rock band named Social Jab, and our CD should be available within the year.   I started teaching classmates in 7th grade and continued through high school.  I believe music is a phenomenal gift to us all in every facet from listening to learning to creating, and it’s an honor to be able to share my knowledge and experiences to help others learn to appreciate the blessing of music.

What to expect in my Drum Lessons

Beginner - Intermediate - Advanced

We'll first go over the student's goals. I cater lessons to each individual student's goals. That could include music theory (reading and writing music) and/or playing along with their favorite songs. I'll share musical building blocks for muscle development, endurance, speed, finesse, power, and of course technique as well as a solid understanding the "role" of drums in a variety of genres and musical situations. It's my opinion that the "what, where, and why" of playing is just as important as the "how" to play when creating your own music or collaborating with other musicians.
