Hi, I'm Ross. A freelance drummer and educator based in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
I've worked in a range of live music environments, from theatre shows and major festivals, to jazz clubs, studio sessions, and TV/radio.

LESSONS
Alongside my live work, I offer 1-1 drum tuition from my home studio. I teach all contemporary styles as well as graded exams.
Whether you want to focus on jazz, odd time, reading, or phrasing - I can help you achieve your goals on the kit. Many of my first students are still studying with me, with ex pupils moving on to take music scholarships, or study music at degree level.
£22.50 - 30mins / £40.00 - 1hr
I currently have some limited availability for 1-1 students (Monday early evening / Tuesday daytime). As a student myself, I continue to take lessons with some of the UK industry pros, and graduated from The Academy of Contemporary Music with First Class Honours in 2016.
All lessons subject to 48hr cancellation policy.
