Drums are of course one of the most fun instruments a young musician can learn
“You’re not getting a drum kit they’re too loud” These are the saddest words a budding young musician can ever hear. Thankfully technology has advanced enough to protect Mum and Dads ears and cheap and affordable electric drum kits are finally hear. A real drum kit can cost you about €1000 and your sanity, whereas you can pick up a basic electric kit for about €200. They’re super easy to use. Just turn it on, plug in the headphones then close the door and enjoy the silence while your young music student is creating an almighty racket that only they can hear.
Drums are of course one of the most fun instruments a young musician can learn, they’re also one of the most valuable. Anyone who was ever in a band when they were young will tell you that drummers are like gold dust. You’ll never be without a band for too long if you can keep a neat and hold your own kit, most young drummers find themselves drafted into several bands at the same time, such is the scarcity of drummers in the world of young musicians.
Our drum teachers try to convey that attitude of fun towards the instrument by using games, competitions and smart tech apps to make the learning experience as colourful as possible.
So throw away those ear plugs and get ready to plug in and play.
