Private Lessons with Bill
Bill
Bill has been passionate about music since an early age. Growing up in Maine, he competed at the state level in high school jazz band, then went on to study classical music at the University in Hartford in Connecticut.
After relocating to the Bay Area, Bill studied with local legend Wally Schnalle, the driving force behind the fusion power trio I3. Bill continues to hone his craft studying under George Breiter, a working drummer based in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
He is an active member of the Bay Area music scene, playing with groups such as God Analog, an industrial pop group, and Intica, an electronic pop outfit built around a singer-songwriter.
Bill takes pride in helping young drummers to express themselves by developing the right skills for whatever genres they want to play. This involves working on the fundamentals of drumming such as hand technique, drum set technique and timekeeping, in a way that is rigorous, but also fun!
