Hey drummers and music enthusiasts! Join us for an exciting drum clinic with the incredible Vera Figueiredo. Get ready to be inspired and learn some new drumming techniques from a true master.
Vera Figueiredo will host a Drum Clinic at the Music School Planet Drum in London. Playing with fiery passion and an eclectic sense of style that blends jazz, funk and fusion with a heady dose of Afro-Cuban flavour, Vera Figueiredo is Brazil's "Queen of Drumming". Her long list of performance credits includes such greats as Eliane Elias, Hermeto Pascoal and Joao Donato, while her CD, "Vera Cruz Island", (featuring Dave Weckl and Robby Ameen) is a critical favourite. Undoubtedly one of the hottest drummers on the international scene today, Vera pumps up her Brazilian roots with rock energy (she was raised on Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin) and fusion technique. As a result, her performances are exciting, fun and full of feel. Her school, the Vera Figueiredo Drum Institute, is a center point for the Brazilian drummer scene.
