Drum Lessons In Houston

If you are looking for great drum instruction, you have come to the right place. Our drum instruction is built upon the same curriculum as North Texas State, a school renowned for producing great drummers. Beginner to advanced, all levels are accepted.

From the amazing grooves of the James Brown drummers to swing era and latin, we cover it all. Task oriented and result driven.

Drummers are the greatest! No doubt about it. They are the driving force of rock, funk, jazz, latina, rhythm and blues and more. Hard to imagine any of these genres without drums.
