Hello! My name is Mia Casey, and I’ve been a drummer ever since I was 7 years old. I also play piano and compose music for films and media, but drumming has always been my biggest passion!

I have been teaching privately for 4 years, and drumming in bands from the age of 15. After 10 years of real industry experience playing/recording in a range of different styles (Rock, Pop, Blues, Folk, Soul, Funk, Country) and touring with with artists in the UK, America and Europe, I have picked up lots tips and tricks that I'd love to include in our lessons.

I started the Didsbury Drum Dept. with the vision of inspiring new drummers to play with confidence, creating a space for unique play-styles to develop and flourish. Being a drummer gives you the skill to change the feel of a track in an instant, guide the groove, and be the beating heart behind every performance. Drumming can be an instrumental part of self-identity and expression, which is why I am motivated to deliver lessons to both adults and children that are engaging, challenging, and educational.
