Please comment the name of your favorite girl drummer below. I will be making a new video highlighting more female drummers in the coming weeks. There are so many amazing female drummers out there and this video only showcases a handful.

[@YouGotOptions2]

You named all of my favs in the beginning. But I also remember back in the day, the lady that played for Arsenio Hall show. Her name was Terry. She was dope too

[@rasidyabdulrahman7972]

you should take a look at this girl nur amira syahira I think she's pretty good

[@jimgroskopf4208]

You missed one of the best....Hannah Ford....Wow!....Was the drummer for Prince

[@jaxonellis2995]

The Jazz Drummers: Cindy Blackman. Terri Lynn Carrington. Kimberly Thompson. Cora Coleman Dunham.

[@user-lw9py]

[@KansaSCaymanS]

Paulina Villarreal of The Warning may not be the most technical drummer, but she is in a very small group of professional rock drummers (male or female) who can sing lead while playing the drums. She has also written or helped compose most of the groups 33+ original songs.

[@GregPourciau]

Here's a video of Pau and Faith at 2017 Hits Like a Girl Award where Faith won and Pau was one of the judges and they played together (kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2ishKKEf61rr5o&ab_channel=HLAGcontest)

[@genboyer]

Indeed! If you're going to include Faith Benson, then you have to include Paulina Villarreal! You can find a vid of them playing a duet from the Hit Like A Girl competition.

[@davebeck8973]

[@alisonscofield6653]

Agreed. Paulina has years ahead to perfect her craft. She's already fantastic.

[@eddyalfa6651]

I like Domino Santantonio, so much passion when she play

[@CarlosRivas-cw5wu]

Paulina Villarreal, apart from playing drums in the group The Warning, is a pianist, singer, composer, programmer and producer with only 20 years. She is currently on tour in the USA. She has collaborated with Faith Benson.

[@carlalopez4820]

You missed Yoyoka and Kanade! Yoyoka is on Drummer World's 500 best drummers of all time list!

[@MM-kh7nx]

A must for the list: Emmanuelle Caplette of Canada! luv your playing Akhamie!

[@jimvandemoter6961]

What about Alice DeBuhr from "Fanny?" That band pioneered all woman bands starting in the early 70's Alice was a killer drummer and the band flat out rocked.

[@Sn00ze]

Don't forget Camille Bigeault, she's an amazing French drummer who plays crazy polyrythms. She's not promoting herself much on social media but she has a small youtube channel and has been featured on Drumeo in the past (some of it can be found on youtube as well).

[@mathisdacquarica7611]

Camille Bigeault can't play 4/4 time😅😅😅

[@zackyjacky2078]

These female drummers are amazing! They’re so talented! My favorite drummer is Anika Nilles!! She’s great! 🔥🔥❤️❤️

[@camiloops.official]

Yes!!! Anika Niles is amazing.

[@markbaker8255]

Yeah.....Akane from Band Maid....THE ABSOLUTE BEST 🔥

[@ericpoirier2807]

She's excellent

[@bettycoffin4206]

Karen Carpenter was one if the best. She made it look so easy effortlessly.

[@lisaallen-dg6bn]

Yes they forgot about her she was awesome😊

[@weslove6018]

"JUNNA" Through the Fire and Flames, cover!! She is the most energetic drummer in the world!!! "YOYOKA" brilliant Japanese drummer at ten years old. "AMIRA SAYAHIRA", Metyl Cohan,. Kanade Sato. Kalonica Nicx!! So many too, like ChenManquig (VELA BLUE) and Luo Xiaobai (S. WHITE)

[@larrydavison2559]

Thank you for sharing. Awesome work 👏

[@jjack33-a2z]

Check out this 11 yo rocker Yoyoka Soma. Youngest ever selected as one of the 500 best drummers of all time by drummerworld. She has the resume and endorsements of a professional 3 times her age. I guarantee you are going to smile and wave back at her.

[@seaneskridge8798]

Brooke Colucci is mind blowing! Love her!

[@jimmys6996]

I second that, nothing against any of these female drummers but Brooke can smoke all of them!

[@Glen.Black.]

Thanks for the video! But, where is Yoyoka (TikTok), youngest ever to be added to DrummerWorld Top 500 Drummers of ALL TIME.

[@adrian3668]

Seeing you playing with your son strap to you is too AWESOME! God bless you

[@grachisol8236]

Great video! As a fellow female drummer, I love all the mutual support

[@camiloops.official]

Awesome and Thank you!

[@SoleymoonPercussion]

Making music to spread joy! I love it! Stay amazing Sister 🙌❤️

[@Coastfog]

Good to have this in my back pocket when someone claims that there are no amazing female drummers. You deserve a spot on this list, too, obviously.

[@francel.1837]

All excellent drummers! My favorite si Domino Santantonio, great energy and always smiling :)

[@laalaasequin9215]

All great drummers. Also, may i suggest, Stella Mozgawa of Warpaint. Fantastic live band from L.A

[@HamiltonRowan-r6z]

You totally forgot to include Sina Doring! She's amazingly talented. How did you miss her?

[@Juicexlx]

I was wondering when you were going to name Sheila E. I remember when there were no female drummer & she came out of the blue with smashing beats. It was a long time ago, but she made an impression on me in the 80's. Oh boy! Was she good. I'm into Metal, but this gal could hit like a Ton of bricks!

[@SilvioSilvaDrone]

I LOVE DOMINO SANTANTONIO. You missed SINA and have introduced others for me. Great job!

[@BradCornock]

Keep on sharing A', You is good peeps, and you rock. Favorite: Sarah Thawer - 8th Wonder of the World!

[@drummermomcjs]

I really liked this video. Some of these ladies I have seen, but others, you have introduced me to. Thank you. Two other female drummers you may want to check out are Dorthea Taylor, and Heidi Joubert (cajon player) they are both exceptional drummers with videos on KZbin. As a drummer myself, it is always a joy to me to see other female drummers. Sheila E and Karen Carpenter were the only female drummers I knew of growing up and inspired me greatly in my own drumming. Karen Carpenter was one of the inspirations that started me drumming and Sheila E inspired me in High School and her success kept me pursuing drums. Great video again. :-)

[@SoundOfYoga]

the best of them is Senri Kawaguchi, its one of most capable drummers now; people don't know her very well because she doesn't have as good PR as others in usa and she doesn't play much with famous artists, but she is young and if she plays a little longer with famous musicians everyone will know her. Other Japanese drummer you dont mention is Kanade Sato - also very, very talented girl...

[@fedniah2770]

Woww, amazing play!😍👍

[@bigralph1978]

Female drummers rock! That's all!

[@camiloops.official]

Yesss 100%

[@Anton_Pupsik]

Got here from reaction to Junna and her Dragon Force cover , and list doesn't include her O_o . And deffentetly here must be Akane from Band-Maid , and yes they both from japan :)

[@DMO9289]

A lot of those are my fav female drummers but I also like Jamie Leigh Schultz, Dorothea Taylor, Didi Negron. Anika is my FAVORITE favorite tho.

[@ericpoirier2807]

The drummer for love bites is one on top of the heel as well 😀

[@danielagee118]

What a great video . Thank you for bringing my attention to the few amazing artists I don't already follow including yourself . 🤘❤

[@Perfect_Blend]

Got to be Karen Carpenter as my favorite. I played drums in high school because of her and she was such an inspiration and amazingly talented. So sad she died so young.

[@mikelawson6456]

No offense...but going on expertise and experience alone...Nadine Bushell has a LONG way to go before being on a list like this

[@batnesislands]

I am shock on your comment but looking at this video and I can see the justification. But you have to see her now or even a year ago, Nadine is much improved and much better than half of the drummers on this list. Watch her take on Caravan.

[@johnbarajas8805]

Pauline of warning ! She writes and singing ! And has 4 albums that she wrote ! Tour with famous band groups ! Probably net worth of 10 or more millions of dollars ! How could you leave a drummer that has more fame like Shelia e. Mind blowing !!

[@salmaveli]

I enjoyed this. Inspiring and I love the support.

[@camiloops.official]

That's great! Yeah, I'm sure there are so many other amazing drummers I have yet to learn about, but I will do my best!

[@jimlemke3658]

Brooke Colucci is another fabulous drummer!

How do you omit Senri Kawaguchi?

Where is Roxy Petrucci, Faith Powell, or Paulina Villarreal?

Cousin you are my favorite female drummer

[@subsonicdeathmonkey]

Someone suggested I watch Count Me In, so I watched the trailer but my first instinctive response was what about more women*! …and here I am. I look forward to seeing this list grow and grow and grow. * It’s not that women are excluded from the documentary it’s just that most come from an era where women as drummers in the mainstream were scarcely seen or heard.

Where is Cherisse Osei,. Simple Minds drummer?

[@mollybloom5681]

From your list, Sarah Thawer. I disagree slightly on Sheila being the GOAT - she's got serious chops, no doubt, but a little too much show for my taste. No disrespect, though. My favorite, apart from Sarah, who I discovered recently, are Terry Lyne Carrington and Marilyn Mazur. First time I saw Marilyn was with the great Miles Davis, shortly before he passed. She impressed me so much that I bought an album by Norwegian Saxophone player Jan Garbarek which features Marilyn. It's called twelve moons and contains one of the most musical percussion/drum solos that I know. I should mention that she plays percussion on this album and Manu Katche is on the kit.

[@reidwhitton6248]

If you pay tribute to your elders, Carrie Lyne, and Cindy Blackman in another video, don't forget the great Evelyn Glennie.

[@carbonc6065]

What is the name of the song at 1:44?

[@Littledrummergirl2007]

Her name is Nandi bushell

[@magnushallin3640]

I see a lot of solo percussionists perform in these clips - but no drummers as in live music. It takes a lot more than fast licks to be a good musician that best serves the music to its genre. The best drummer in my opinion is Yoyoka Soma based on her ability to make music sound better. She doesn't over play to get attention for her skills like many of the other "top drummers" do

[@abudarianalfatih8596]

Kanade Sato my 1st choice 😀

[@frankallen7417]

Sina and Kalonica Nicx

[@MsFunkyFingers]

Coming from A drummer-i've Seen,jammed, Rehearsed,practice sessions, gigs,to the level At my peak,I'm Familiar with Brook c,Hanna Ford and to name of few Others. Personally this Has taking me To really learn Your instrument More and Learn A bit more rudiments mechanically While continuing by Playing with Feeling! These Female drumming to Me are even Better than alot Of male drummers that Are more at my Level! I totally Surrender to These girls,the Ones I've truly Watched and Studied! I've Never seen and Heard this drumming in my Whole life,however from my errA I was surprised To see Carol Carpenter play Nearly like Buddy rich! This Is not a fad,this Always was around, it's because women didn't get the publicity Then that there Getting now!
