Dave Weckl, Steve Smith, plus
guitarist Mike Stern and more, while working with several other music
artists. Steven is hands-on at the camp, running the events and
making himself available to talk about the industry and best
practices for getting ahead.Music Director Vinny Valentino is a composer/guitartist in Steve Smith's band: Steve Smith and Vital Information NYC Edition. He also writes and records with George Benson and several other prominent artists. Vinny organizes the concerts, runs the nightly jams, and teaches a "Groove Class" that our attendees are welcome to attend. Everyone at DFC is friendly and encouraging.
