I had a SoCal Drum Party come to a mall Kids Club. They were fabulous! Parents and Kids enjoyed the drum circle, it was a great community activity! I would bring them back again!

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a large party for over 50 kids, and to make it truly memorable, we invited a drum circle to join us. And let me tell you, it was an absolute blast!
From the moment they arrived, the energy was infectious. The drummers were not just talented musicians, but also incredibly engaging and enthusiastic. They effortlessly captivated the attention of every single child (and even a few adults!) present.
Throughout the entire hour-long performance, they kept everyone entertained with a diverse range of rhythms and beats. It was amazing to see how they seamlessly integrated interactive elements into their performance, encouraging the kids to join in and play along. The joy and excitement on the faces of the children as they participated were truly heartwarming.
What stood out the most was the inclusivity of the drum circle. They made sure that every child had the opportunity to be a part of the experience, regardless of their age or musical ability. It was a wonderful display of unity and teamwork, as they fostered a sense of community among the kids through the power of music.
Not only did the drum circle provide entertainment, but they also imparted valuable lessons about collaboration, creativity, and cultural appreciation. It was a truly enriching experience for everyone involved.
In conclusion, I cannot recommend the drum circle highly enough. Their professionalism, talent, and genuine passion for what they do shone through every beat. If you're looking to add an extra dose of fun and excitement to your event, look no further than this incredible group of musicians. Thank you for making our party unforgettable!

Booking with SoCal Drum Party was the best decision I could have made. Our Cubscout pack needed some entertainment for our Blue and Gold party. Our boys loved the idea of a drum circle and all the kids from ages 3-11 were entertained! You can’t go wrong!

We had a NYE party and hired Mike and Sloan to lead a drum circle at our event. We had around 50 people, mostly adults. Fantastic experience! Mike is high energy and got our guests excited to participate. We had people dancing in the middle of the circle! Mike & Sloan keep the energy high, and lead your group through different beats. Thank you again!

Mike is a fantastic teacher — I love how he works with every individual and sees them where they are. It’s wonderful. There are piles of fantastic percussion instruments for everyone to try!!
Mike is a talented, kind and generous of spirit. I will definitely return to the next meetups!

This was a lot of fun, and different from other kid parties we have been too. Kids all loved the drumming and Mike did a great job engaging all the different kids.

Mike came to our Girl Scout troop meeting and was a hit! I asked him to prepare activities that would fit into two badges we were working on: “art in nature” and a “creative and caring” Daisy petal. He came up with a slate of options that were perfect. The girls began by making unique rhythms that matched their names. Then they created a soundscape with a range of percussion instruments (frogs, crickets, birds, etc) which encouraged them to listen to nature and also each other. Finally, they experimented with “magic wands” to create a fairy themed sound scape. Overall the activity was a huge success. The girls learned a lot and had a great time doing so. He was great at engaging with the girls- asking them questions and prompting them to work together. They have mentioned it several times since and we are looking for other badge activities that we could work on with him.

We loved Mike’s educational drum presentation for our kindergarten class! He is extremely knowledgeable, creative, fun, and engaging. So great to see our students getting excited about music and drumming. They couldn’t stop talking about it! We’re planning to have Mike come again!

What to Expect
We will arrive 30 minutes early to set up the drums and other instruments. We are always punctual.
After starting with a few easy warm-ups, The facilitator will allow the energy of the group to guide them to choose the right activities and rhythms for the group. We tailor our drum circles on the spot to the unique abilities of each group.
As the session goes on, it's OK if people want to come and go as they please, or switch to a different seat with a different instrument.
Once the session is over, it takes us about 20 minutes to get packed up and loaded out of the space.
