| “I studied with Scott Robertson for three years before attending the Jazz Studies program at Capilano College. Scott’s well prepared, informative lessons gave me a great foundation for my subsequent musical opportunities. I’ve been playing professionally now for about 14 years in many diverse situations ranging from Cruise Ships, Touring Bands, Big Band and numerous small groups in pop and jazz music. I still ask Scott questions on any area of drumming that I come across where I’m uncertain. Scott Robertson is an authority of the drum set.” – Kristian Braathen | “As my first drum teacher Scott gave me the foundation I needed to build a career as a professional drummer. His lesson plan is very effective in developing a thorough and well rounded understanding of music and drumming.

I would highly recommend Scott to any one interested in developing as a musician and drummer.” -Nathan Wylie (AU4 & Stabilo) | ||

Successful students are the proof. We are forever grateful for the strong start and tools he gave our son.”- Keith Honeywell Keith is a band teacher for the Surrey school district who brought his son, Ethan, for lessons a few years back. Ethan is now a very busy player around town.
