LEARN TO BE A MUSICIAN
I believe that one size does NOT fit all! Every student is a unique individual with different learning styles, dreams, abilities and goals. I offer a solid foundation that any student would need to excel as a drummer no matter what style or genre they choose to play.

ABOUT TONY
With a career spanning 4 decades, I've learned a lot along the way. I'd love to teach you the things I've practiced my whole life!
I've toured as a drummer with CCM artists Mylon LeFevre and Brokenheart, Wayne Watson, Point of Grace and Cindy Morgan. I've also toured with Austin singer/songwriters Cory Morrow and Monte Montgomery, played and recorded with musician / producer J.J. Placencio (Sixpence, Plumb), played in worship bands for several national conferences with the Association of Vineyard Churches and I'm an active, in demand player around the music scene in Austin.
My son has taken drum lessons with Tony Miller for over a year now, and we have seen tremendous growth! We are thankful for his patient and very “kid-friendly” manner with our son. Highly recommend!
