Dave Goodman

Jazz critic John Clare has described Dave Goodman as ‘one of the leading drummers in the country’ and ‘[one of] the most intriguing drummers recording anywhere’. At just eighteen, Dave received an invitation to join the renowned Mike Nock Quartet and, at twenty, came second in the prestigious National Jazz Awards. Today, he is, undoubtedly, one of Australia’s most important jazz drummers.

As an educator, Dave brings with him over twenty years of teaching experience from previous appointments at prominent institutions such as Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Dave's My Drum Practice website is an extensive, dynamic resource allowing drummers and drum teachers to access invaluable information and keep up with his educational activities and events.
