We’re incredibly proud to have featured four of the best drummers in town and to have given them a room full of awesome attendees to share their abilities with.

A huge shoutout to Conrad Real for an amazing clinic and for sharing his knowledge and approach with everyone in attendance.

Congratulations to Lamar Tuggle, our drum competition winner and recipient of the grand prize, a Yamaha EAD10. Despite it being VERY close, Lamar brought it and earned the win.

Demetrius Williams II brought passion, chops, and a fiery solo to the stage, while Jordan Hays displayed an impressive rhythmic sense and a unique approach to the drums.

All four drummers were great in their own regard, and we’re just stoked to have had them here and to be able to showcase what they do.

Special thanks to Jay Kenney from Yamaha for being such an important part of the event and helping make the night happen.

We’re looking forward to seeing what all of these drummers do moving forward. Hopefully this is just the beginning and a springboard for more after-hours drum sheds at West Coast Drum Shop.

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported the event. We’ll see you at the next one.

Thank you to Adam Deitch for an incredible clinic! We appreciate his deep knowledge of all things funk, incredible pocket, and generosity with everyone who attended.

Hopefully you were able to catch LETTUCE while they were in town, too.

A big thank you to everyone who came out and continues to push themselves, learn, and grow as drummers. We’re grateful to be able to bring artists like Adam to the shop and share these experiences with our community.
