What People Say About Brian’s Online Drum Lessons
Matt Circle
Professional Drummer
"Brian Baker is a well-educated, accomplished, and respected drummer/percussionist. His knowledge, experience and approach to the instrument is second to none and should definitely be respected."
Jessica Trowbridge
Kaiden's Mom
"I have loved watching how much Kaiden enjoys and wants to build on his lessons. After every lesson he is excited to show us his growth and the new things that he has learned. The fact that he is excited and engaged in the lessons is huge. He has been able to see his own improvement which keeps him motivated and eager to continue learning. He has even been able to take what he has learned and find elements of that in music he hears! Brian has done a fantastic job of challenging him while keeping him encouraged."
Jeff Brite
