El's Mobile Drum Tuition service in Wollongong provides professional and quality tuition to drummers at a beginner level, through to more advanced levels.
With ten years experience teaching drums privately and through Thirroul Academy of Music Dance and Drama, El's Drum Tuition provides professional and quality tuition at reasonable rates for junior and senior drummers just starting out or more advanced players wanting to brush up on technique, reading and groove.
Extensive experience preparing students for HSC pieces, Southern Stars and band/ ensemble auditions. I am experienced in working with autistic kids, and I teach with patience and compassion.
My performance experience started at the age of 15, playing with the Concorde 80 Jazz big band. From there, I met Nick Southcott, Sydney Jazz/ Latin pianist who I later performed and studied with in Jazz ensemble at the Wollongong Conservatorium of Music. Around this time, I received drum lessons from virtuoso Sydney Jazz drummer Dave Goodman and attended workshops with renowned Australian drummer, David Jones.
I have performed live and recorded in the studio with a variety of bands, both covers and originals ranging from pop, funk, jazz, rock and punk.
I currently play in a local rock band called BRUCE! that formed in 2012. Since then we've recorded a full length debut album and had the privilege of sharing the stage with some legendary bands including Turbonegro (Norway), Regurgitator, The Beasts of Bourbon, King Parrot,Tumbleweed, The Cosmic Psychos, Giants of Science, Nation Blue, and many more.
