Introduction: I am currently teaching online with Zoom for the majority of my students. If you are interested in online lessons, all you need to get started is a computer and a fast internet connection. In-person lessons are by appointment at my studio at Fork's Drum Closet. I work as a professional musician and I teach drum lessons most afternoons. Many years of working full time as a musician (touring & in the recording studios) has given me a unique perspective that many teachers don't have. There's nothing like experience to make you good at what you do. I've been playing drums since the age of 9, and I started teaching drum lessons when I was in high school. I started the teaching program at The Memphis Drum Shop in the mid-80s, and have been at Fork's Drum Closet in Nashville since 1996. I've been very lucky to make a living doing what I love, and it's a joy to pass my knowledge on to others. I've watched a number of my students become fantastic musicians, and some are very successful! (examples: Cody Dickinson-North Mississippi Allstars; George Sluppick- The Chris Robinson Brotherhood; Marshall Richardson- Jo Dee Messina; Billy Thomas- Vince Gill; Jamin Orrall- Be Your Own Pet/Jeff the Brotherhood; Steve Gorman- Black Crowes)

Steve is giving me drum lessons. I'm an adult student with a music background in another instrument, and Steve had listened carefully to what I would like to do, and has developed a lesson plan to meet my objectives. His is really an amazing teacher.

Our son's in his 3rd year with Steve Ebe and we offer the highest recommendation whether you're an adult looking to elevate your skills or a parent seeking instruction for your child. Our son has benefited from Steve's structured lessons and he's made meaningful progress learning how to analyze songs and musically support them, how to read music, and the ongoing development foundational techniques for hands & feet often glossed over by most drum teachers. Our son has specific learning disabilities. While Mr. Ebe has always been attentive to what he needs in order to learn, we've appreciated how our son has been held to the same high expectations teachers should hold for any student. Since our son began lessons, his grades in school have improved, he's more independent, and he's learned the importance of showing up on time and prepared. For what it's worth, I'm a professional drummer and studied under top level teachers in Chicago, North Texas State with Ed Soph, and Los Angeles with Jake Hannah (Tony Bennett) and Denny Seiwell (Paul McCartney). My reason for mentioning this is because the delivery of curriculum I see coming home for my son is equal and/or superior to the teachers I've previously experienced.

I started taking lessons from Steve after not having played for over 40 years. I bought some drums but soon realized I had forgotten the little I knew long ago. Not only is he personally a fantastic player, he also has been a great teacher for me - never condescending, always patient and encouraging. I highly recommend Steve as a drum instructor to anyone wanting or needing lessons at any level - from absolute beginner to seasoned professional.

I've been taking drum lessons from Steve for almost a year, even though I have played drums for almost 40 years. He has taken my playing to a new level, fixing issues with basic rudiments, helping me with my sight-reading, and teach me lots of new tricks.

Steve is a fantastic teacher with a fundamental yet practical approach to teaching the drums. I studied with him for about a year and now my son studies with him. I would highly recommend him to any aspiring drummer.
