About
Danny holds over 40 years of playing experience including 25 years as a private instructor. Danny began playing drums at the age of 12 and began playing professionally at age 18. In 1989, Danny journeyed to New York City completing the certificate program at the Drummers Collective School of Music with primary focus of study in Latin Rhythms for the drum set and Studio drumming. Returning home to New Mexico, he began playing jingle and session dates as well as performing with latin salsa band Las Amigas (opening for such musical luminaries as Airto and Rueben Blades). In 1991 Danny moved to Nashville, TN where for three years he did session work as well as performed with a variety of artists from Phil Keaggy to nationally known reggae group Freedom of Expression. Moving to Michigan in 1994, Danny maintained a private drum teaching position for the past 25 years while playing with various artists in concert as well as the studio. Danny currently resides in Austin Texas continuing to play and teach professionally.
Having taught private drum lessons for the past 25 years has given me much insight into understanding how to tailor lessons to help a student's goals be met. I love finding ways to make learning the drums fun as well as challenging at the same time. I enjoy instructing beginners through advanced as well as all age levels and am proficient in teaching many different styles of music from jazz, country, rock, pop, latin, reggae, and praise & worship just to name a few. Whether you are a complete beginner or are looking for direction and guidance for an upcoming audition or session, I would love to help you reach your musical goals.
