August 13, 2013 8:00 PM Philly Drum Project "DrumPhil" Student Recital at Terra Hall

Support Music Education in Philadelphia

August 13th is a very exciting day for Philly Drum Project, as we bring together 12 Philly high school students and 10 amazing Philly drum educators for a one day workshop entitled DrumPhil. This is our very first educational program, and we're honored to have such local drummers as George "Spanky" McCurdy (Lady Gaga), Erik Tribbett (Jill Scott), Eric Slick (Dr. Dog), and John Kimock (Steve Kimock, Bernie Worrell) involved to lead individual and private lessons with the students. Ari Hoenig (whom you might have seen play our One-Year Anniversary back in April) and Tommy Campbell (Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Rollins) will be venturing down from New York to teach, as well as instructors from UArts, Temple, and Drexel. We hope you will join us that evening at 8pm for a special student recital featuring all 12 students and a drumset duet by Eric Slick and John Kimock. The event is free and will be held at Terra Hall, 211 S. Broad St. Let's celebrate the accomplishments of these students and encourage them to keep drumming!
