SECURE YOUR SPACE

Some of the most impactful experiences of my life have been attending drum camps. The sense of community, the opportunity to learn and share, and the personal growth I’ve experienced have always inspired me to create my own. And now, I’m thrilled to share that vision with you! 

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Scottish countryside, we’ll spend three full days diving into what I love most—practice. You’ll discover my unique practice systems and methods, and learn how they work together to create a well-rounded routine that will help you become a more expressive and creative drummer. 

To keep things intimate and impactful, each camp is limited to just 10 participants. This ensures everyone gets personal, 1-on-1 time with me, while also enjoying group sessions where you can share ideas, play, and build lifelong friendships with fellow drummers.

DRUM CAMP FAQ
  • How do I sign up and secure my space?

    To reserve your spot, simply complete the booking form HERE and then submit a non-refundable £100 deposit. Payment details will be provided after you’ve filled out the form. 

  • What if the camp I want to attend is sold out?

    If the camp you want to attend is sold out please email camps@davemajormusic.com with the camp you wish to attend and you will be added to the waiting list. You’ll be notified if a space becomes available.

  • What does a camp look like?

    Each camp lasts 3 days, with educational sessions running from 10am to 6pm. While the focus is on drumming, there will also be plenty of time for campers to practice the material, relax, and enjoy refreshments and snacks provided throughout the day.

    Each camper will have the chance to play on one of the two Sonor acoustic kits, and practice kits will be available for solo work.

    We’ll be supporting one another, with plenty of opportunities for playing, asking questions, and having fun! Some camps will also feature evening events such as roundtable discussions, hangouts, and performances (though not all camps will include these). There’s also a welcome meal the evening before the camp begins.

    All evening events (except the welcome meal) are optional but highly encouraged!

  • What level do I need to be to attend a camp?

    While the material covered in each camp is designed to be relevant for drummers of all levels, I recommend being at least an intermediate/advanced player. A basic understanding of subdivisions, metronome work, and rudiments will be helpful (though don’t worry about being a master!). Some experience with different feels and styles will also be beneficial.

    If you’re unsure about your level, feel free to reach out to me at camps@davemajormusic.com, and I’d be happy to help!

  • What do I need to bring?

    Sticks and yourself…that’s it. Everything else is provided.
    Each camper gets a mini practice kit with stool, music stands and everything you need. There are 2 acoustic kits as well as a couple of practice kits for solo practice.

  • Are there any other camps available?

    To start I want to focus on making the best camp I can but I do have ideas for future camps on different topics and will then offer each camp every year. To keep up to date you can keep an eye on my social media or join my mailing list.
