Dante L.
TUESDAY: DRUMS ONLY
WEDNESDAY: DRUMS ONLY
THURSDAY: PIANO ONLY
SUNDAY: DRUMS ONLY
Dante is a drummer, percussionist, pianist, and audio engineer based in the Denver area. He began learning to play the drum set and percussion in 3rd grade when he started lessons at Allegro! While he enjoys working on his craft, he believes that sharing the knowledge and passing down the skills he has acquired is one of the most important aspects of music. Additionally, while it’s great to practice and work hard, Dante believes music should be a fun experience for both the performer and the listener!
Throughout his life, Dante has spent his time playing and listening to a lot of jazz, latin, rock, hip-hop, pop, and indie rock music. He played in his high school’s Jazz, Symphonic, Concert, and Marching Bands, as well as the Musical’s Pit Orchestra, Choir Ensembles, Wolverine Symphony Orchestra, and Winter Percussion Ensemble. Outside of school, he played percussion for the All State Orchestra and the Continental League Honor Band. While in high school, he also discovered his love for piano, and began pursuing it as his secondary instrument. He played drum set and piano at a church for 6 years, while also filling in on bass and guitar, and as the live sound engineer.
Dante earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Music with an emphasis in Recording Arts at the University of Colorado Denver in December 2023! At CU Denver, he dove into all things audio while improving his playing through studying Latin Music and Latin Percussion. He currently plays in a few groups ranging from Latin Jazz to Funk and Pop. Playing his first show at Dazzle in 8th grade, Dante has grown up playing music all around Denver.

Mike N.
From a very young age I fell in love with the drums and through my career I've been lucky to be a part of a great number of musical ventures. From Jazz Bands, Drum lines, Prog Rock and Metal bands; To running a recording studio and performing session work for bands across the country. I've become experienced not just as a player but as a professional. Teaching has been a passion of mine from day one and I've always been excited to share my knowledge.
I've always been and will continue to be a student, from taking lessons at Allegro to teaching there myself, I can't wait to see how we help each other grow our craft!
