Born and raised in a music house in Rome, Italy, Dave's aural senses were delighted by some of the most infectious music on the planet from Scarlatti, to Miles Davies, to Stevie Wonder and anything in between. After establishing an early relationship with the piano and lots of singing, he turned to drumming. Binding him in to a love that has carried him through 20 years of passionate music development, and has blessed him with the chance to work on an international scale with many wonderful artists, while also writing, producing, performing, recording, mixing and engineering 5 of his own records, and teaching/coaching drummers of any age at any level, to help them achieve both serious goals on the instrument or even just helping them find a way to enjoy playing this wonderful instrument more.

He teaches privately from his sound treated studio space in Battersea, London. £30 x hour.
