Looking for the right drummer for your band? Need a percussionist for an event? A drummer is a musician who plays the drums, particularly the drum kit, marching percussion, hand drums or cow bell. A studio drummer can play ideally in any musical genre, but most drummers do have a specialty. In the studio, a drummer will often be given a sheet of music to read with one or two words describing the style. From this basic information, an accomplished drummer will understand the groove and feel of the song. Some of today's most famous studio drummers are renowned for their ability to adapt to any style of music.

Gig Salad's Top 3 Tips for Hiring a Drummer
1. Listen to audio and watch video clips. This will ensure that you truly do book the best for your next event!
2. Does the Drummer have his own drum kit? Most, if not all Drummers own their own drum kit, however, there are those rare occasions when a Drummer will ask if the venue will have a drum kit available.
3. Get a Contract. A lot of talent requires a deposit to secure them at your next event. Make sure to read through the contract carefully.
