About Tom
Tom has been playing drums since the age of 12.
He studied at The British and Irish Institute of Modern Music (BIMM) in Bristol and turned professional when he was 20.
He's toured all over the UK and Europe with artists such as Marc Ford (The Black Crowes) Jay James (X-Factor/Decca Records) and recorded in the studio with Brian Banks (Michael Jackson's "Thriller" album) and Clint Murphy (Manic Street Preachers).
Tom regularly performs with a huge variety of artists and bands including Eddie Martin, John Paul Gard (Groovelator), Innes Sibun (Robert Plant), Pete Gage (Dr Feelgood) and Jon Amor (The Hoax).
In addition to teaching privately and in numerous schools, he is also a fully qualified Yamaha drum instructor, Tom has studied with world reknowned drummers such as Dave Weckl (Chick Corea, BB King), Aaron Comess (Spin Doctors) and Dave Dicenso (Berklee College Head of drums, USA), and has previously done work for both Rhythm magazine and Drummer magazine.

I teach people of all Ages and Ability levels, I strongly believe that everybody learns and absorbs information in different ways and therefore lessons will be tailored to suit each individual student.
I am able to teach Most styles, reading, click playing etc... Grades are an option if this is something you would like to look into, I've been playing professionally now for over 10 years so I prefer to gear my lessons/techniques towards being able to play music with other people, not just the drums themselves.
