Les DeMerle Interview

This video is my 2018 on-camera interview with the legendary drummer and bandleader, The Dynamic Les DeMerle. Having held the drum chair with some of the biggest names in music, (Harry James, Frank Sinatra, Manhattan Transfer, Wayne Newton) Les recounts his early career in the jazz clubs of New York City, his new Skype lessons and much more.

Every time I get to see my long time friend, teacher and mentor Les DeMerle, I’m inspired, I learn and I’m reminded of how lucky I am to know him . Great interview guys!

Les is a legend! Thanks for this video as it's a reminder on how privileged I am to have studied with him.
