Alex Cohen has now emerged as one of the most advanced progressive drummers on the planet. Called, ‘Incredible’ by Thomas Lang, and ‘A revelation’ by Virgil Donati, Alex is pushing the boundaries of what was thought to be possible on the drum set. Both of his books, ‘Ultimate Progressive Drumming’, and ‘Extreme Polyrhythm And Speed Techniques’ (co-authored with Brazilian drumming icon Ramon Montagner) have received rave reviews from drummers ranging from Derek Roddy to John Riley. A faculty member at the world-renowned Drummer’s Collective in York City, Alex maintains a busy teaching and gigging schedule, as well as running a high-end recording studio in Pennsylvania. As of 2024, he is the recipient of the ‘Louie Bellson Award’ from Drumeo for his innovations on the instrument with independence and double bass. Alex will be also releasing his third book, and conducting drum camps all over the world as well.
Alex endorses:
Yamaha Drums, Paiste Cymbals, ProMark Drumsticks, Evans Drumheads, RimRiser Percussion, Prologix Pads, and Lowboy Beaters
