Live Performance & Education
“What a wonderful evening, a very big thank you to the Swing Band led by Jamie on drums, Luke on guitar, Sam on bass, Andy on sax and Kemani on vocals, for the brilliant performance at our daughter's Carly 40th birthday celebration. Carly also performed four songs with the band.
The band played a fantastic set of eclectic music which kept the vibe and atmosphere of the night going, our guests commented how talented they were and helped make the night. I have no hesitation in recommending the band.”

“If you are looking for drummer tuition look no further, l cannot recommend Jamie's tuition highly enough! He started giving our grandson lessons about 6 months ago and his progress has been startling. It speaks volumes of Jamie's patience and talent, keeping 'engaged' the whole time. To say our grandson looks forward to his lessons is a big understatement!”

“Jamie Boyles is one of the loveliest drummers I’ve worked with in all my time being a function musician. He was superb at learning stuff on a really short turnaround as our drummer had to drop out due to family circumstances. He did an amazing job at learning a massive set of songs, he came in with a really excitable personality, was really fun to be on the gigs with and was ever the professional from start to finish. He was really fun to be around on the off days as well and always got involved in any group activities. So, Jamie Boyles for the win…amazing to work with and I’d work with him again in a heartbeat!”

“Jamie is everything and more that I was hoping for from a tutor. He makes the lessons fly by, without any pressure and the progression I have seen in myself already is a testament to Jamie's skills, understanding and ability to get the best of students.”

“Jamie is a fantastic drum teacher, my son Oliver (aged 7) has loved his lessons with him and they were the highlight of the week. Jamie is extremely professional and very talented indeed. I would highly recommend him as a teacher to anyone wanting to learn how to play the drums.”
Hannah - Saddleworth
“My son is nine years old and had weekly drum lessons with Jamie. From the very beginning, it was clear that he is a highly skilled, patient, and encouraging teacher who understands how to work effectively with children. He quickly built a great rapport with my son, creating a relaxed but focused learning environment that kept him engaged and motivated each week.
During the time they worked together, my son made excellent progress in both his technical ability and his overall confidence on the drums.
Although the tuition period was relatively short, the positive impact Jamie had on my son’s musical development was significant. I would not hesitate to recommend him to other families or organisations looking for a dedicated and effective drum teacher.”
