Drum Hangs are pleased to be able to offer the world's drumming community a completely immersive, interactive and informal experience harnessing the capabilities of Zoom.
Each week first-call session drummer, Neal Wilkinson, will be 'live from London' for a two hour broadcast where all participants can enjoy gaining immensely from Neal's insights into drums, music & drumming all gathered from a 40+ year career at the top.
A special guest will join the hang every week. Our special guests are chosen based on their contribution to music in real working situations, so they're able to give further insight into the music industry from their point of view.
All participants are encouraged to interact spontaneously throughout these sessions; being in the moment is a thing of beauty in life & music.
