Sam Ulano

Taking up the drums at age 13, Sam Ulano opened his first studio four years later and began teaching and writing about drumming. He followed up high school with four years at the Manhattan School of Music before being drafted into the army, where he trained a 100 piece drum corps.

Now 83 years old and showing no signs of letting up, Sam is a performer, educator and author who has been in the music profession for over 65 years. During that time, he has studied with and taught the best of them, while carving out a niche for himself as a respected drummer on the New York scene. Sam has played at many of the top nightspots in New York, including the Gaslight Club and currently, the famed Red Blazer. He’s played the summer resorts, the concert field, and is known as “Mr. Rhythm” for his more that 500 shows for young audiences throughout the New York school system. He has appeared on Television with Steve Allen on the The Tonight Show, as well as with Gary Moore, Ernie Kovacs, and Joe Franklin.

Well known for his methods of drum teaching and his progressive approach to writing about the instrument he loves, Sam has over 2500 instruction books to his credit – 300 in the past five years alone! He also has produced records, audio and video tapes, and CD’s of his instruction and performance. He continues to write, teach and perform in his own inimitable style.
