We had around 60 people travelling from the UK and we needed someone we could trust to put on a great party for us. Douglas did just that. From first contact he made us feel like we were in safe hands. He helped us create a set list with our friend and managed his part with the venue so we didn’t have anything to worry about. The night was way beyond our wildest expectations; from the first track until the last one, the floor was full. Music to suit everyone from my 85-year-old father in law to the ravers in the group. I cannot recommend Douglas highly enough." Based in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (473 miles from Dresden) 24th November 2025 Steve Taylor - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for percussionists ranges from €100 to €1,500+, with an average of €360. Rates depend on the type of percussion, performance duration and the performer's experience. Options range from African djembe and Latin percussion to tabla, cajon and tailored percussive performances.

Events that commonly feature percussionists include corporate events, parties, DJ sets needing live percussion, recording sessions, drum circles, team-building workshops and cultural events. Live percussion adds energy, rhythm and a visual element to any performance.

Many percussionists offer interactive drumming workshops where guests participate together, playing rhythms as a group. This is a popular choice for corporate team-building events, school programmes and festival activities. It is a good idea to discuss workshop formats with the percussionist.

Most percussionists bring their own percussion instruments and any stands or accessories needed. For workshops, the percussionist often provides instruments for all participants. It is worth confirming what equipment is included, especially for group workshops.
