Kjetil Lynnæs

Drummer for Sørvest


"Simen was my drumteacher for about a year. He taught me a lot about technique, musicality and the responsibility of a drummer. He nourished my joy of practicing and made me much more aware of every little detail of what I was practicing. He has pushed me, inspired me, and given me a lot of knowledge both theoretical and practical. Simen always makes me want to push myself harder, and having fun while doing it."

Markus Øvensen

Drummer for Young Curage

"To have Drum lessons with Simen was a really inspirational experience. I learned alot and found my weaknesses and strengths as a drummer, and I found it even more fun to play drums after his Drum lessons. Simen gave me more ideas,  to practice different kinds of styles and how to practice teqnique better. I can really recommend Simen as a teacher regardless of what kind of style you like to play!" - Markus
