About
Welcome to drumcast.tv! I've been drum lesson podcasting since 2006. It has been great fun sharing my thoughts on drumming and learning from those who watch the drum lessons, send e-mails, leave comments and call the toll-free voicemail hotline.
I teach drum lessons in Sioux Falls and have been playing drums for more than 20 years. I've played with many bands over the years, including:
- Free On Bond - Sioux Falls, SD
- Shaydz - Sioux Falls, SD
- Flood Romeo - Sioux Falls, SD
- Rockwells - Sioux Falls, SD
- Joyful Noise praise band - Sioux Falls, SD
- Wake Up Call praise band - Sioux Falls, SD
- Third Verse - Sioux Falls, SD
- Ninepatch praise band - Sioux Falls, SD
- Faith United praise band - Brandon, SD
- Church at the Gate praise band - Sioux Falls, SD
- Doug Allen and Chicago Mob - Chicago, IL
- Dirty Wet Dirt - Ames, IA
- Floodplane - Ames, IA
- Saints Dixieland Band - Marion, IA
My approach to the drums is based on constant experimentation and refinement. I believe it is important to approach music and our skills with humility, realizing there will always be something more to learn and experience. That’s one of the things that makes it fun! I hope, by taking drum lessons from me, you will experience and be exposed to many ideas that inspire you. And, in turn, I hope you use your gifts and talents to inspire others as well!
God bless,
