Hi, I'm Danny. I've been teaching drums in Bristol for over 15 years.
I perform & record with top artists like Culprate, Roni Size & Kelis and I love to share my experience with drummers of all ages and abilities.
I believe that curiosity and inspiration are the most powerful tools available to the learning mind, and I'm here to show you how to use them.
I've taught drums in schools, colleges and universities. I've delivered workshops, lectures and masterclasses. Your lessons will be tailored to your learning style and can take place at my studio, your home or over Skype.
I offer a free, no-obligation introductory lesson in which you can have a go on the kit, see what it's like and discuss your musical goals & how to achieve them.
Should you wish to continue after that, your lessons can be as long as you like, as often as you like, putting you in control of the price. A 30-minute one-to-one session costs £12.00. Group sessions are available at cheaper rates and I offer a discount on fees paid monthly.
REVIEWS:
"My 9 yr old lad started drum lessons in Bristol last October and his progress has been amazing – as well as covering rudiments and sight reading, he’s also picked up groove, and the desire to experiment with fills. Key point for me is that I never have to ask him to practice – he’s always on the drums!!” – Graham
“I started taking drum lessons in Bristol around six months ago. From the start Danny’s teaching has been comprehensive, intuitive and fun. As an adult learner with very little musical background, learning a new instrument can be a daunting task. Danny’s support has really helped me feel comfortable with this. He was able to quickly recognise and respond to my learning style and explain theory and technique in terms that I can easily understand and engage with. Through identifying and discussing some of my musical influences, he has been able to guide me to other genres and influences that I may not have discovered on my own. I always come away from a lesson feeling informed, empowered and inspired.” – Kathryn
“My 13 year-old son, Pete, has been learning with Danny for less than a year, having previously had drum lessons at school, which he wasn’t enjoying as they were completely exam focused. Since switching to Danny he literally buzzes with enthusiasm after every lesson. He enjoys practising at home (without being asked) but absolutely loves drumming alongside Danny at his lessons. The improvement in Pete’s drumming in just a few months is incredible – he seems to learn something new every lesson. Drumming makes him happy and I cannot recommend Danny highly enough!” –
