Rich's Drum System

Hey There! My name is Rich Spicer and I am an Independent Drummer and available for hire.  I am also a Drum Educator for REJOICE! Performing Arts Studio located in Fayetteville, NC and a member of the Vic Firth Education Team.  As a self taught drummer, I have studied many styles of drumming extensively. I am originally from the Baltimore, Maryland area where I was first a band member of a childrens band called "The Christian Rockets" under the leadership of Miss Maginis.  Later I became the drummer for such bands as "Shelley's Emeralds", "Lite-N-Easy" and "The Grand Junction Band".  I played many one nighters for many other bands in the area as well.  I have been playing drums for over fifty years. As the son of a Master Musician, Tuba and Bass player John Spicer and brother of a wonderful Trumpet player, Dennis Spicer,  I was given the opportunity to be around the very best musicians at a very young age which has been a big factor in developing my style of drumming and the cause of my learning to play all styles of music at an early age. I currently use God's gift of drumming to assist in church plants as a member of their worship team, temporary fill in drummer for church's in transition, serve in worship bands that go out to evangelize through music and testimonies, as well as teach private lessons. I am also available for hire to play with experienced musicians if the need arise. I most enjoy working with other musicians who also have a heart for Jesus.

My approach to teaching drums includes fundamental music theory, reading music, rudimental exercises, and more than a few styles of music (from Contemporary Praise & Worship to Big Band Jazz Swing, Rock, Funk, Latin and almost anything in between...I LOVE versatility in music! :).

Whether you desire to fulfill a life long desire to play, or simply are ready to go to the next level in your drumming technique, Rich's Drum System is the place to go!

Currently teaching ages 5 to Adult, from beginner to advanced students.

I look forward to serving your drumming needs soon!

In HIS Service,
(Vic Firth Educator) Rich Spicer

My mission is to train drummers of all ages to
be the best they can be and use this gift from God for His Glory! For more information on Rejoice! Performing Arts Studio you can find us on the web at: www.rejoiceministriesonline.info
