About Atomic Drummer
Hello, I'm Geoff Kinde! I've been playing and teaching for over 40 years. I performed on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Miss USA Pageant and appeared in Three to Tango starring Neve Campbell. I can be heard in the Scooby-Doo Movie, American Pie, The Haunted Mansion Soundtrack and many more.
I teach all levels and styles of drumming, plus melody and hand percussion. Study in-person at Oz's Music in Ann Arbor or learn online with Zoom, Skype or FaceTime. Choose 30 minute or 60 minute lessons, whichever better fits your needs.
On this website you can register for lessons, download exercises, watch videos, read a blog or hang out in the Drummer's Lounge. Feel free to look around. Enjoy!
