The Backstory
"Before I owned a drum set, I would play on anything that was around, including buckets, tupper ware, pots, and my little brother."
As a child, I was obsessed with rhythm. I would frequently get in trouble for tapping my pencil in class, but I couldn’t stop. I felt compelled to transform that tap into something.
I cannot recall a point in my life that I wasn’t tapping, but I didn’t consider myself a natural. It took years of perseverance, plenty of practice, and educating myself in every way I could to get to the point I am now. I’ve played in marching bands. I’ve performed with headliners all over the world. I’ve had the fortune of touring four different continents, yet my favorite part was teaching workshops on my favorite topic: RHYTHM.
Rhythm has been a huge asset to my life, and watching those discoveries in others is amazing. I was an elementary school teacher when I opted to use bucket drums with the kids, and it was a huge success. The movement had begun and an idea was formed.
Bucketdrumming.net is a one-stop educational resource for individuals and educators to access lesson plans, video tutorials, sheet music, and more. These supplies, available with membership, are for personal or professional use. With regularly updated lessons, outlined plans, and access to a like-minded community, success is inevitable. So is the fun.
“Your videos are easy to follow because you always use right, left, top, rim or sides consistently, and you are very engaging!”

“Hey Sammy, we started playing yesterday! I was so nervous, not being a drummer, but I started like you showed using the right hand, then left, alternate, and together. It worked well.”
