Beginning July 1, 2014, 13 to 18 year old, U.S.-based drummers can enter Drumerica, the National Competition for Young Drummers, by recording a drum video, uploading it to YouTube and registering at www.drumerica.us. Participants will not only have a chance to win $1000’s in prizes from leading drum companies, their entries will also be viewed by drummers around the world and judged by a panel of celebrity judges.
