InfluencesHeres a few videos of my drumming. Please forgive the poor video quality as I recorded most of them on my phone. Also, this is not my kit, Im using the teaching kit at Greenbank.

Watch more of my videos on my YouTube Channel.

   About Ninja Drummist
Visit my official web site NinjaDrummist.com

My name is Lewis, some people call me the Ninja Drummist. Music is my life and Ive been playing since I was 3 years old. My first instrument is Drums and I was taught by Freddie Wells. I also play Bass, Guitar and Piano.

I teach drums at Greenbank and Lea Manor and I design websites. I play in some great bands: New Groove Formation, The Claret Sky, The Jazz All Stars and a currently nameless Drum n Bass project. Other bands Ive worked with include Headfly, The Wellington Bootles, Magic Rising, The Blues Squad and Farouche.

Ive also been working on a solo project featuring my other instruments called The Cloud9 Mission.

If you are interested in booking some drum lessons, please send me a message!

I play a Yamaha Stage Custom Drum Kit with Zildjian K Cymbals and Regal Tip Sticks. In a perfect world (one where Im not a struggling musician), I would love to own a DW Drum Kit! If any of these companies want to talk sponsorship, please get in contact!

I wish I led a more interesting life but, unless your a fellow musician, you'll probably be bored here lol. On the odd occasion that I'm not practicing teaching or gigging, I design websites (click here to see some sites I have designed).

I love God, my family, my wonderful girlfriend, my friends, music, teaching, talking, films and geeky japanese tokusatsu stuff.

If you wanna know more, then you'll have to send me a message cos I hate writing these things lol!
