    Learn the basics of drum with personalized lessons from an expert drummer

    I'm a full time touring musician, I studied music in school for 8 years, but I can honestly say I've learned more about music through my years as a touring musician. I find great joy in sharing all the things I've learned over the years. I like getting to know my students; their expectations and goals as an aspiring drummer, and I build my curriculum around their needs. In my lessons you can expect to learn, and have fun!

    Have you always wanted to play the drums? Do you want to jam along your favorite tracks or play live with a band? I will teach you or your child all of the knowledge and tools needed to do whatever your dream is on your instrument. I take pride in helping every student achieve their goals on their instrument. My methods are relaxed and patient, and is an environment that promotes a love of music! Well pick up some sticks and lets get rolling! (Pun intended) My lessons are not the same for everyone. I like to get to know my students; music goals and learning style, and I build my curriculum around that information. I am a full time touring, recording musician who lives in Nashville TN. I graduated with a Bachelor of Music degree in Performance from Roberts Wesleyan College. During my studies at Roberts I taught percussion and music theory at U-Prep High school. In 2016 I moved to Nashville, after 4 months of working with anyone and everyone, I decided to find a band I that I could call my own. Leading me to this moment, where I am currently on tour with my band, The Foxies, and perform with and MD for two other artist based out of Nashville. I have Performed at Warped Tour, Sundance, SXSW, Bonaroo, Nashvilles-Live on the Green.

    One of the best things about taking a weekly lesson with Rob is that I can practice and learn what he teaches me all week and make a list of questions to ask during our next lesson. I highly recommend his method of learning Ableton.
