Alex D.

Hello! Welcome to my profile. I’m very much looking forward to working with you. Here’s a little about me! I have had a passion for music since as long as I can remember. I was lucky to begin playing drums at the age of eight and have never looked back. Since then I have continued my education by studying with numerous drummers, including Walfredo Reyes Jr. (Chicago, Santana, Steve Winwood) and Ry Stephenson (Dan Varner Band). I also had formal education in school where I was involved in the music program from middle school all the way through my time at CCM at the University of Cincinnati. I am currently a member of two bands (In The Pines, Dudley Taft Band) that write, record, and tour professionally. I began teaching close friends and acquaintances about two years ago and have been branching out more and more as time goes on. My musical influences range from jazz to heavy rock and everything in between. I believe it is very important to have at least some knowledge in every genre in order to be the best version of yourself as a drummer and musician. I look forward to getting to know you as a student and learning about your specific goals, interests, and learning style. Book a lesson now and get connected right away!
