About the studio

Slap Happy Music Studio is something I have been imagining for a long time: a place where people can learn all types of percussion, explore new styles of music, and collaborate with other musicians. It is not meant to replace any school music program: this studio is a supplement to school bands, orchestras, and choirs. It is my goal to introduce you to styles of music you have never heard before and give you the opportunity to study music you love in any direction you choose.
