I started my musical journey at the age of 5 when I started lessons. I played throughout my school years eventually forming the Barry Glenn Duo with keyboard player Barry Hoare and together we played a number of variety shows with local comedians including the likes of Joe Pasquale.

 

From there I moved on to playing with a number of bands playing local venues before moving on to weddings and corporate gigs.

 

Alongide this, I began pursing a career in teaching spending time studying with Bob Armstrong alongside undertaking a teaching degree with ABRSM and completing my drum and music theory exams with Guildhall School of Music. I have been teaching drums for over 20 years in schools around Essex and privately at the Academy. I enjoy teaching students of all ages and have extensive experience teaching students with SEND including Autism and ADHD.
