Jamm Studios 2022— Q4 Newsletter
Student Spotlight
We have a heart-warming story to share from one of our drum students this festive season. Irem first contacted us in December 2021 with a lifelong desire to start learning drums, but she didn’t get around to starting that journey until late April 2022, and what she achieved in just a few months is totally inspired.
Six years ago, her then boyfriend had arranged with their dance group a flash mob dance routine so that he could propose to Irem, they captured the whole thing on camera and it was magical. Five years later, Irem wanted to return that loving gesture.
Using the song her husband used for the dance routine, Irem had set out to learn Sweater Weather by The Neighbourhood on the drums to produce a performance for their 5th year anniversary. She did an amazing job!

World Cup Fever
The world’s most monumental event finally arrived in Qatar and it did not disappoint. The phenomenal sporting moments that it promised were truly stunning, but it also came with an unimaginably positive feeling of community and humanity along with opportunities to be cherished for a lifetime.
FIFA Fan Festival
Our piano tutor Dave scored a number of great gigs in front of incredible audiences reaching 40,000 at the FIFA Fan Festival main stage.
Black Eyed Peas
Our drum tutor Kenjo got busy too, not only was he rocking the FIFA stage at the Corniche, he also engaged as drum technician for Black Eyed Peas!
We couldn’t help ourselves from playing with the official FIFA World Cup soundtracks. We re-wrote, re-arranged, re-harmonized and just poked fun at the songs everyone came to love and hate over the World Cup.
