"Erik Truelove is a Yoda among drum teachers:  patient, powerful and wise –   a master of The Force that music flows from.  Not all drummers have the ability to transmit their knowledge to others. Erik has that gift. His love of the instrument is so contagious that it is inspiring just to be in the same room with him during lessons. He holds his students in high esteem, and has great respect for the learning process. "

If you are serious about wanting to play drums,  Erik can show you how to achieve your dream. -- Carol Ann Alaimo, Tucson Drum Studio student since April 2005

"Erik’s method of teaching is truly unparalleled; he is able to explain aspects of drumming in so many ways that nothing from his lessons are misunderstood. Seeing that he has such a deep understanding of drumming is inspirational and every lesson with him drives me to become a better drummer. I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn from him, and plan to continue taking lessons from Erik as long as possible." --Joey Locher, 22


"Well I have to say, Camden was the most excited I have ever seen him from camp. He truly enjoyed it all, and loved his prizes:) Thank you for that. It brings more encouragement to him the more he does!" Angie Munger


"Hey Erik, I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for all you did to help my son learn the drums. You have made a positive impact on his life and I can not thank you enough. You have a lot of patients and have a way of teaching that allows kids the mistakes that they will make. But how quickly they learn. I am sorry it took me so long to say thanks, but you are a very good instructor. Keep up the good work, talk to ya later." -Dave Cole 


"I have been playing for 20yrs now, countless shows and recordings, and I STILL learn something new from every lesson with Erik." -Justin Stokes, 33


"Taking my son to Tucson Drum Studio for drum lessons is something I look forward to every week. I read a magazine, have a cup of tea & listen to my son improve his playing" - Becca Stevens
