πŸ₯ 3 YEARS OF ALEC AT AMPED! πŸŽ‰
Happy Ampediversary to our drum, piano, & songwriting teacher Alec Kores! 🎊

Alec has performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, competed and won DJ/Drummer competitions, produced a Coldplay tribute show, and somehow still shows up every week to make our students sound incredible. 🎢

We are so lucky to have a teacher who has played everything from Big Band Jazz to Bluegrass to EDM, and brings ALL of that experience into his lessons.

Learn more about Alec and try a lesson with him at www.ampedschoolofmusic.com/aleckores

You can catch Alec performing in the area on drums in Javi & The Brambled Hearts πŸ₯ and solo in his live-looping project, Loop In Color πŸŽ›οΈ

Here's to 3 amazing years, Alec! πŸ§‘πŸ’›
