Tommy Diplock
Verified TeacherAbout Me
About | Growing up in rural Devon I found an early passion for music and soon became obsessed with it; this soon became a deep fascination with drums. throughout school I was always playing and formed many good friends through musical clubs/bands by the end I had achieved my Trinity Guildhall Grade 8. I then moved to Exeter College where I continued to pursue music, simultaneously achieving my Trinity Guildhall ATCL level Diploma and ABRSM Grade 5 general music theory. I then went on to apply to one of the UK’s Leading music conservatoires – Leeds College of Music and was offered an unconditional offer. Since graduating I have been working professionally within the music industry tutoring, performing in bands and working as a session musician. Drumming has always and will always be a huge part of my life, I am committed to trying to share my passion for music and drumming with as many people as possible. I urge anyone who has never picked up an instrument to give it a go, it is a fantastic outlet for creativity, focus and leads to lots of social interactions with like-minded people. If you are looking for a new hobby or way to meet new people, drumming is a great place to start. Music Qualifications & Achievements: I hold:
I am trained in a wide range of styles spanning from Jazz, soul, blues, rock, metal, drum and bass, hip hop and much more. Whatever style of music you are interested in learning I will be able to craft lessons to help you reach those goals. I have years of professional gigging and teaching experience. I am fully self-employed purely working with the music and education industry. Teaching drums is a career I have always been eager to pursue and I absolutely love my job! |

Tommy is a superb teacher and his lessons are fun, engaging and practical. My son, Shishir is so excited every week for his lesson and we feel very fortunate to have found Tommy! He always makes the effort to tailor the lesson to my son’s skills while also challenging and motivating him to improve. Thanks for all the effort! I would highly recommend Tommy’s drum teaching.

Tommy has been teaching my 15 year old son drum lessons by video during the lockdown and he has been a fantastic, responsive and helpful teacher. More than a teacher, he is becoming a real friend. We can’t recommend him highly enough. Ian Verified

I had a really enjoyable lesson with Tommy. He is a talented drummer with a relaxed and smiley manner, even able to put an old chap like me at ease. Thanks Tommy. Tony Verified
