Hello everyone,

Was it just me or did January seem to last forever? Well hopefully Planet drum can spice up your February with more workshops and exciting performances from Asaf Sirkis (Friday the 8th of February) and Paprika (Saturday the 9th of February).

​The workshops beforehand are free for all our Planet drum students!

Firstly, how good was Robert Brian's masterclass on Friday the 25th of January? A huge thank you to Rob and everyone who came down!

BBC Jazz drummer, Asaf Sirkis at Planet drum!

You might recognise him from playing on the BBC Young Jazz musician of the year 2018!

The Sirkis/Bialas International Quartet 
is a fresh new collaboration between Israeli UK-resident drummer/composer Asaf Sirkis and Polish vocalist/composer extraordinaire Sylwia Bialas. This band celebrates original music from both collaborators, covering a wide range of influences such as contemporary classical music, Polish folk, South Indian & Middle Eastern music. The quartet will be playing materials from their forthcoming double album 'Our New Earth' which will be released on Moonjune records later in 2019. Click here to grab your tickets.
