Young Drummers

The Next Generation

Dumfries Drum Day features young drummers from across the region, giving them the opportunity to rock out on stage. For many this is their first time playing live on stage, with a band in front of an audience.

This is such a valuable experience for these young people, practicing at home is great but the feeling of performing on stage can't be learned at home.

Be sure to catch the young drummer performances and show them your support!
