Strictly 4 The Music

Mitch Pike is a 27 year old drummer from Exeter, a small city in the southwest of England. In 2017 he was one of the three winners of a European contest held by Roland called V-Drums Heroes. In 2018 he began teaching drums in 3 schools that specialise in music in the southwest, and within a year had a full timetable of students throughout the week, while continuing to perform with acts in the evenings. In 2019 he played with 20+ different musical acts ranging in genres from rock and metal to jazz and pop. In March 2020 at the beginning of the UK lockdown for COVID-19, he began uploading videos from home played on his Roland kit, and since has amassed over 10,000 followers. Mitch’s content varies from chops based videos played to tracks, to notated grooves and fills, to a breakdown series featuring demonstrating technical work from some of the worlds most renowned drummers.
