Hey. My name is Nick Cesarz and I’m the founder of Drumming Review, one of the web’s most loved drumming blogs with over 100,000 readers a month. I play drums and am the music producer for the pop-rock group Vinyl Theatre.

I’ve been playing for twenty four years. I’ve been obsessed with drums and percussion (especially all the gear) since day one of playing. Some of my favorite players include Steve Gadd, Simon Phillips, Tony Williams, Art Blakey, Dave Grohl, Dave Weckl, Neil Peart, and many others.
