“True Passion”

Adam Berkowitz – Petty Theft

Tracy is a fantastic drummer, and teacher, with a true passion for sharing his vast knowledge of the drums. His understanding of technique derives from the masters. Wanna learn to read better? He’s got you covered. Wanna develop your rudiments? Done. Tracy is your guy!

“Professional!”

Clementine M. – Zepparella

I’ve been playing for 20 years. I just started working with Tracy, but immediately I’m seeing benefits. Tracy is professional, kind, a good listener, and a great drummer with the ability to assess what I need in order for me to reach my goals. He’s helped me immensely.

“Inspiring!”

Denis Murphy – Undercover

I’ve been playing drums for about thirty years and my only regret is that I didn’t find Tracy sooner. I can finally relax and feel confident playing at gigs behind my drums with technique. He is inspiring as a teacher, patient and an excellent drummer himself. I highly reccomend Tracy”

“Next Level!”

Roland Tolosa – Sugarfoot

“Tracy’s drumming is Swiss Watch-accurate!   I have been playing the drums for more than forty years, and still have so much to learn. Recently toured Germany with the Milagro Latin Band. Thanks to Tracy, my latin grooves are more solid and efficient.
