Dave has been apart of our Family for many years as he worked with our son with Autism.

Thank you for your gentle spirit with our son and know that "You Rock Dude" !! May God Bless You Always!!

My son had worked with Dave Sweet for just over 5 years. Dave does a great job of introducing new skills and personalizing his lessons. When needed he works on music selections from school or audition music. When not needed, he is always ready to work on something he has prepared.

My son has been Dave’s student for several years. Dave is knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging teacher. We’ve stayed with Dave for lessons even after moving 30 mi away, because he’s so great with my son who has some special needs. Learning from a professional musician like Dave has been a wonderful experience. His experience and manner of teaching have helped my son increase his self esteem and truly enjoy playing the drums.

My son has been taking drum lessons with Dave for over 5 years. Dave is a wonderful instructor. We lost my husband 3 years ago, and Dave has had a consistent, positive impact on my son’s life every week since that time.

I took drum lessons from Dave Sweet from 8 years old until I was 19. I am now 32 years old with 2 degrees in percussion. I have taught for the last 10 years with several years at the college undergraduate level.

Growing up, Dave gave me the necessary push and skills to achieve my goals. He challenged and motivated. I owe everything to him.

Dave is very kind and laid back. I was a shy kid afraid of everyone around me. I felt at home while under his instruction.

Overall, you would have to be crazy not to consider Dave Sweet as a drum instructor. He is well versed in numerous aspects of drums and percussion. He can take you beyond what you thought was capable!

Dave is super knowledgeable and patient with his students. He starts by building a solid foundation and follows up by imparting a high level of music education. A great teacher!

Extremely knowledgeable and well versed in a wide array of styles and genres. Lessons always feel personalized and comfortable.
