  • ANIKA NILLES

    Anika Nilles has built her solo career enormously thanks to many millions of views on YouTube, and made international waves last year by taking the drums with Jeff Beck in what would later be his very last tour!

  • VIRGIL DONATI

    Due to his virtuoso playing, Virgil Donati is regarded by many as one of the best soloists in the world. He played with bands like Planet X and master guitarists like Steve Vai, Scott Henderson, Frank Gambale, Kiko Loureiro and Tony MacAlpine. He calls his clinics ‘drum concerts’, and sets the bar high: the metric modulations, polyrhythms and multidimensional grooves fly around you. Note the high-speed bass drumming, the alien juggling techniques, the power with which he plays, but certainly also the musicality of his work.
