I have a few open slots for students at this time! [email protected]

Tomorrow, Sunday MAY 6, there are TWO things happening for music lovers at Villain and Saint in Bethesda, MD! First, starting at 2:00pm, my private drumming students (ages 7-70+) will perform in a (very informal) Recital. Most will play along with tracks in a variety of styles. Soon afterwards, from 5-7pm, I'll be performing with Ro Cube (subbing for David Bach) and Lorenzo Sands in an anything-goes trio of musical madness! No cover charge for any of this!
