I don’t usually use the BANG! Drumming Blog to make announcements but we’re growing and we’re looking for teachers. I am happy to have some of the best drummers in NYC helping us and I have my eye out for a few more. I’ve been meeting with people over the past few weeks, and would like to continue the process. We’re looking for people who are amazing drummers. All of our teachers live, eat and breath drumming. They are also fantastic teachers and they’ve got significant experience as both teachers and players. Most of our teachers have been educated at the world’s top music institutions.
Beyond that, the BANG! attitude is extremely important.
The BANG! The Drum School attitude is one of openness, honesty, integrity, excitement, enthusiasm, gentle confidence and extreme patience. BANG! teachers are ego-less in their work with students. That is part of our credo. No attitudes, arrogance or egos. Just a simple confident joy for drumming and a desire and ability to impart that joy to others so they can experience it.
The BANG! teacher must also be outgoing, energetic and extremely organized and responsible. A knack for sales is important too.
If you are interested, or know someone who may be interested, please let them know.
Potential candidates should not email or call; the process is to send a resume and hand written cover letter via regular mail to:
Mark Feldman, PO Box #475, 223 West 38th Street, NYC, NY 10018-9998
Please note: This is NOT our studio’s address. It’s just our Post Office Box for business correspondence.
He first gained attention as one of the winners of Modern Drummer magazine's very first drum solo contest, judged by Rush's Neil Peart.
He's played with Oz Noy, Will Lee, Alison Krauss, Curtis Stigers, Emily Remler, Joel Hoekstra, GE Smith, Andy York, Marshall Crenshaw, Tony Shanahan, The Drifters, The Marvelettes, Big Brother and The Holding Company, and many other artists.
