Rick J Bowen: Drums,percussion,vocals,producer. BA Western Michigan University.
10 years teaching experiance. 20 years pro performance.
I have began teaching at RIT drums central in grand rapids MI in 1991. and continue to ffoer private instruction and group lessons and vollunteer as a teachers aid in my daughters school in Everett. Versatility and musicallity are the keys to success for every musician and especially drummers. I try to incorpaorate as many styles as possible with a focus on control and interdependence that allows a drummer to expand their mucial vocabulary. fun first is also my motto, practice makes perfect they say but if it isn't fun then you won't go far. Whether it is full drum set, snare drum or hand drums , playing together is the best way to pass on knowledge, skill and the joy of drumming. You can hear samples of my at stacyjonesband.com
