Live Beats Lab: Music Production & Drums with Matthew Zotti

ABOUT LIVE BEATS LAB: MUSIC PRODUCTION & DRUMS
If you’ve ever felt the pull of rhythm or dreamed of laying down your own drum tracks, Live Beats Lab: Drums is where it starts. This isn’t just another drum class — it’s a creative lab where live drumming meets digital production. Led by drummer and producer Matthew Zotti, this workshop is designed for musicians who want to build their instrumental skills while exploring how today’s music is really made: through the fusion of live performance and technology. You’ll get hands-on experience with drums, learn how to capture your sound, and develop the skills to share it with the world. Join the group session to build your foundation followed by an open lab hour to give you the one-on-one time you need to grow. Whether you’re new to the kit or looking to sharpen your sound, this is your space to create, collaborate, and elevate your artistry. This workshop series is 18+ only.
