Drum Lessons with Sam Gatewood

I studied under legendary Oklahoma drummer Dustin Rhodes for 10 years in Tulsa, OK where I was born and raised. I now reside in Philadelphia, PA, and have over 20 years of playing experience that I'll use to teach you the art of drumming. With a focus on groove, technique, ear training, and most of all having fun behind the kit, you will leave my lessons with the skills and confidence required to reach your drumming goals.

Currently accepting students of all ages and will travel to you for the lesson. Must live in Philly or surrounding suburbs. Feel free to send me a message using the contact page for any questions you might have or if you're ready to schedule lessons!

My lessons are great for any drummer at any age and skill level!

• Kids taking school band (marching, pep, orchestra, jazz, etc).
• Preschoolers who you want to have a head start.
• Aspiring to drum in a band (Kids or Adults).
• Actors prepping for a role as a drummer.
• Complete beginners, intermediates, or a more advanced player who needs help reaching that next level.

Anyone who wants to learn the drums, whether it's for fun or taken more seriously, I've got you covered!
