North Shore Drums 2026 Drum Set recital was a great success! It was very rewarding to see how far these students have come this year. , Canopus Drums , ,

I just came across this gem! This is another publication by Ted Reed (I inherited this book from my drum teacher, Don Reid after he passed). Don’s markings in this book were from 1967, I think he was about 22 then? , , , ,

Greetings friends,
It’s hard to believe but summer is just around the corner! I’d like to extend an invitation to anyone who is looking to improve their skill set on drum to consider my ‘Drum Set Intensive’, or summer lessons. My studio is located in North Vancouver and I accept students of all levels, from beginners to advanced. For lessons, I offer one hour lessons and flexibility through the summer months. For the drum set intensive, this is a week long program, typically Monday- Friday for 2 hours each day. I teach technique, drum set styles (Rock, Jazz, Funk etc), reading (everything needed for school band) and improvisation. This year I’m adding a section called ‘Recording Drums 101’, which will introduce the student to the basic steps of setting up, microphone placement, preparing to record and recording of drum set. This is especially something I wish I was exposed to when I first started in music! For more information on lessons or the intensive, feel free to contact me at, [email protected] or through my website, www.northshoredrums.com
