In this episode of the Creative Spaces podcast, we’re talking to Percussionist, Drummer and Clinician, Kayleigh Moyer.

Based in Nashville, Kayleigh graduated from Belmont University with a Bachelors in Commercial Music Percussion with an emphasis in Performance. While there, Kayleigh was awarded the Freshman of the Year, Sophomore of the Year, and Junior of the Year Award, as well as the Percussive Arts Society scholarship dedicated to iconic Nashville drummer Larrie Londin.

Kayleigh has been building a successful career performing and recording with artists including Keith Urban, Ashley Clark, Reignite, Barrage 8, Post Modern Jukebox and breakout Pop Artist Whitney Woerz. She traveled to China with the Hollywood Film Music Orchestra for the Nanjing Forest Festival and performed 2 hours of film music with a 45-piece orchestra under the direction of Erik Ochsner, and moved between drum kit and the classical percussion section from piece to piece.

Kayleigh proudly endorses Pearl Drums, Sabian Cymbals, PreSonus, Genelec and Auralex. She records and engineers sessions and product demos, as well as online teaching, at her Nashville-based studio.

Roadie: A True Story (at least the parts I remember)

One of the most influential people in my life continues to be my piano professor from college, John Arnn. Now retired from Nashville's Belmont University, John fills his day with composing, arranging hymns and choral pieces, writing his second novel ...and even taking time to appear on his student's podcast! 

John's teaching greatly enhanced my love of arranging hymns, and in this episode, we discussed how the principles apply to the family caregiver.
