A Little Bit About Me!

Ethan started playing drums at the age of five when his parents bought him a drum set for the first time. From there, Ethan has been playing non-stop with several different groups in a wide variety of different genres and styles over the past eighteen years.  Ethan was born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee, and moved to Boston, Massachusetts, to attend Berklee in January 2022, where he graduated from in May 2025 with a Bachelor's degree in Drum Set Music Performance. He also has several years of teaching experience, having taught at School of Rock in Knoxville from 2020 to 2023, private percussion tutoring with Tutor Doctor from 2024 to 2025, and is currently teaching both keyboard and drums at the School of Rock in Watertown, MA since August 2025. Whether you need someone for some studio work or a drummer for your band’s tour, Ethan’s tight and versatile playing will fit right in with your needs!
