About

Matt Liban is a sought after drum teacher (since 1995) as well as a live and recording session player from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Teaching all ages, levels and styles. Matt started playing drums at age 8. At age 10 he began playing with John Ruka, continuing through high school. While in high school, he played in the Symphonic Band (1st chair as a freshman) and Marching Band. Matt attended UW-Milwaukee 1990-1995, where he received his Bachelor of Science, and obtained Learning Disabilities K-9 Certification. He continues to perform upwards of one hundred fifty shows per year with numerous musical affiliations. In addition to his current work with the regionally recognized 5 Card Studs (www.fivecardstuds.com) , Matt was touring drummer (both nationally and internationally) with Willy Porter. Matt also has an impressive list of other live performing and recording credits, with the likes of: Altered 5 Blues Band, The Jimmy's, Jim Liban Blues Combo, Sammy Llanas (The Bodeans), Ian Spanic (Spanic Boys), Fender Guitar Clinician - Greg Koch, Jon Paris, Billy Flynn, as well as blues legends- John Brim, Hubert Sumlin, and George Thorogood. With over 25 years of teaching experience and 30 years of professional performance I feel comfortable teaching many different styles of drumming. I can accommodate varying ages of students and individualize teaching goals suited to their strengths utilizing my college background.

He’s warm, positive and kind, both to me and my son, who takes lessons from him. He’s super knowledgeable, but his patience and kindness sets him apart.

If you are lucky enough to secure a time for lessons with Matt, you will not regret it! He is encouraging and so much fun for youngsters, teens and seniors like me! He finds songs that are of interest to each age group which makes practicing something you actually enjoy. How great it is to then see him at a gig and know he shared a little of his talent with you! I will be forever grateful for the 7 years I enjoyed learning from Matt!

Matt taught both of my boys in weekly lessons for about 10 years each. He was not only their drum instructor but became a mentor and friend as they aged. They are still connected with him today, although both away at college now. Through the years, Matt met them where they were in their skill development and passion, tailoring lessons as they explored their musicianship. He knew when to push their learning, when to give them some space, and when to pass them along to other instructors in his network when they needed extra training out of his teaching scope. One of my sons is graduating from the Berklee College of Music this year and although there were several music instructors who influenced his skills and abilities, Matt had the most profound impact on his joy in playing and performing and guided him on his path to a professional music career. I can’t say enough about Matt’s ability to connect with a student, to offer them a safe space to become who they are, and teach them about music along the way. I’m so grateful for his role in the lives of my children.
