Miles K.

Miles is a professional percussionist from Fairfax County, Virginia who performs and teaches almost every style of percussion there is to offer, from the classical snare drum to the Indian Tabla. As a student under Joe Tompkins at Rutgers University, Miles has made it his personal goal to achieve professional proficiency in every style of percussion, specifically afro/latin drumming. Miles has been drumming professionally for two years, and teaching in both private and group settings for four. Miles also has an extensive background in marching percussion, having instructed drumlines at Monroe Township High School, North Brunswick High School, and multi time USBANDS national championship winners, Edison High School. Miles’ favorite performance opportunities involve playing percussion in musical theater pit orchestras, and live jazz gigs. Miles hopes to be involved in musical theater more professionally in the future, and eventually find himself performing in Broadway musical pits.
