75 nominees. 15 categories. 7 days. You decide who takes home a trophy at this year’s Drumeo Awards.
And because it wouldn’t be fair to ask for your vote without telling you why we’ve nominated these amazing drummers, we’ve included a brief summary for each nominee with some of their 2024 accomplishments.
From award-winning studio musicians to TikTok creators, drummers spent hours (and weeks, and months) writing, recording, learning, entertaining, teaching, and performing all over the world. They released books and tutorials, slayed the stage, and brought the magic of drumming to the people.
It’s never easy to narrow down who deserves to be highlighted. In fact, it’s impossible to get it right 100% of the time. But we polled the drumming community and worked with an internal panel of pro drummers to create the best shortlist we could.
Now it’s up to you! Cast your votes below – voting is open until December 22 at 9:00pm PT, and we’ll announce the winners at the awards show live stream on the Drumeo YouTube channel on January 30, 2025 (set your reminders).
