As a high-school music teacher for 8 years at the Juana Escobar School in Bogota, Colombia, Edwin’s confidence and drive is sure to keep any student on track and playing beats by the end of the first lesson. Equipped with a Bachelor’s degree in Music from The National Pedagogical University of Colombia, Edwin and his family made the move to Canada in 2013. Though quiet and collected, Edwin began expanding his musicality in the region and began playing with several Colombian folklore bands. He is the principal drummer at Calvary Assembly in Cambridge, and has participated in recordings and musical arrangements of Christian worship projects. He is currently the drummer and music director of Canadian Country artist Jeff Catto’s band. Edwin's private lesson rate is $28/half hour
