History

For 20 years, Gerard has been a self taught drummer - Learning technique, dynamics, and style by emulating his favorite drummers and grinding to play his favorite songs note by note. Gerard learned rudiments from his school's, Orchestra, Concert and Jazz Bands growing up. Then, during the summer before high school, was asked to drum for his first band. Since then, Gerard has collaborated with several artists in a variety of genres, rounding out his own sound, improvisational skills, and intuition as a drummer; preparing him to deliver a solid performance.

As an Educator, Gerard helped to begin a program in college that matched talented musicians with those willing and wanting to learn. Later, Gerard went on to teach one on one lessons, using patience, listening, and perspective to provide a fun and effective learning experience.
