Busting sticks for over 40 years.

 

Hi - I'm Kevin - I've been playing percussion for over 40 years, with a degree in Music Education from the University of Lowell. I've taught drums, percussion, percussion sections, and marching band (as a consultant - not my full time gig) as well as arranged for percussion ensembles for over 34 years. I'm trying to share my knowledge and enthusiasm for drums to help continue my desire to teach others.

I usually use an iPhone (usually a current model) and/or GoPro Hero 10 to record the videos, with a clip-on mic for narration, along with MainStage, Logic Pro, QuickTime, Audio Hijack, EZDrummer, BFD, and Superior Drummer to record and edit the drum sounds on a Mac mini. I edit my videos in either Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

I'm currently playing an Alesis Nitro Mesh Special Edition kit, which I've expanded with extra pads and triggers (I have a video on that!) while waiting to build a new drum room at our new house to hold my large Pearl MX acoustic kit (seen in some of my older videos). Thanks!
