Hi Everyone!
This has been long overdue, my own website that ends in dot.com. Very exciting. In this space, I will be posting musings of a drummer and teacher as well as any articles I've written (publishing or unpublished). I welcome comments and encourage reading, and I thank you in advance for your attention to my general spewings about drumming, musicianship, and music in general.
I am very excited to announce my presence in the Milwaukie areas of March 2011. I grew up here. On the Willamette River to be exact. After living and teaching in Sellwood, which I still love, for almost 20 years, it is a sort of "coming home". I am nearer to my drum line activities at Rex Putnam High School and hope to expand my studio. It is much bigger and I have recently added a set of vibes and a 4 octave Marimba. The baby grand piano is upstairs and I am now offering lessons again on Piano. Many of you know I play weddings as well as the principle songwriter and co-founder of HERE COMES EVERYBODY, an established PDX band that has been performing, touring, and releasing music since 1986. I also play weddings and events. Call now to schedule Drum, Marimba, and Piano lessons, discounts for more than one instruments and families will apply. See my new studio policy .
Look forward to more postings here in the next few weeks and beyond! For now....WELCOME TO MY NEW WEBSITE!--René
