Class Experience

Each week we will breakdown and discuss a new drum beat! The beats we will discuss include rock and roll beats, latin beats, jazz, funk, country, etc. We will discuss these beats, their history, and the drummers who created them and made them famous! We'll also look at particular songs that share these beats. This jam packed class will have you jamming to your favorite music in no time!!! Students should have access to a full drum set for each class. In addition, each student should have access to headphones/earbuds with which they can hear the class. Phone/laptop speakers are insufficient for this class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Brad Novak. I'm an educator, business owner, drummer, and musician and would LOVE to work with your child! I currently teach over 100 students weekly in one-on-one and ensemble sessions at my private teaching studio called The Beat Lab. In addition to my responsibilities at The Beat Lab I also teach... 
- Drum set at Interlochen Arts Academy, a fine arts high school in Interlochen, MI
- Beginning band at the Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools in Traverse City, MI 
- Applied Percussion for Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City, MI
- Multiple percussion and Ukulele classes for our local Homeschool co-op.

In addition to my teaching schedule I perform live with several local artists and record drums and percussion tracks for singer/songwriter projects. 

I studied music/drumming at Berklee College of Music in 1996 and at Central Michigan University from 1997-2001. This education, and the fantastic teachers/professors that worked with me, sparked my own interest in educating. Since then. I've been "full speed ahead"!!!

I'm blessed with an amazing wife, 3 wonderful children, 1 always-hungry dog, and 7 chickens!
