凯文·白

We are so excited to welcome 凯文·白, Drum Instructor, to our CAM faculty!

总部位于夏洛特, 北卡罗莱纳, International Author and Music Instructor 凯文·白 has been teaching private drum/percussion lessons and performing for over 25 years. He graduated from the University of 北卡罗莱纳 at Greensboro’s School of Music where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in percussion. He also studied at the world-famous Drummers Collective in New York City. Kevin has performed with many local and national groups covering the styles of rock, 爵士乐, 蓝调, 和灵魂.

He is a highly regarded author of the critically acclaimed “Breaking It Down” series of music instruction books. These books have been a global success and have helped teachers from all over the world guide students of all ages to learn how to play the drums. 在他教学生涯的早期, Kevin realized there was a need for easier to follow beginner drum instruction books. Most students lacked the coordination to play the exercises provided in most books available to beginners. Kevin has developed a 小军鼓/drum set combo book series that is designed to “Break Down” the grooves and allow the student to learn in easy steps. He also noticed that many piano students have much more success when learning out of a series of instructional books as opposed to individually created books. The lack of this type of educational material for drum students is why he began developing the “Breaking It Down” any age series along with the “Breaking It Down For Kids” series. The “Breaking It Down” series started as one book and now has grown to over 10 books. These highly regarded books are currently distributed all over the world from Alaska to Australia and everywhere in between, 无论是印刷的还是数字的.

Kevin’s music style includes 爵士乐, funk, reggae, rock, 蓝调 和灵魂. His influences are Vinnie Colaiuta, Bernard Purdie, Jeff Porcaro, 和克莱德Stubblefield. Kevin is also a consulting member of the Salyers Percussion Education Team.
