Alexa Kent

Alexa Kent is a local drummer from Encinitas, California. She is the current drummer for Bummer Dreams and Sad World. Her mission is to empower, teach, and be a good influence and role model to women in the drum community.

Her career in percussion started with the piano. She not only taught herself how to play the piano, she also taught herself music theory. When she joined her high school’s concert band, she played in the percussion section focusing on the mallet.  It was a little intimidating being the only female percussionist and having the least experience in her section, but that didn’t stop her. One day, she went into one of the band room’s practice rooms and got behind a drum set for the first time. From that moment, Alexa’s focus shifted to drums. She watched YouTube tutorials on Drumeo and practiced as much as she could. Two years later, when she was finally able to purchase her own kit, things really started to take off.

In addition to drumming for Bummer Dreams and Sad World, Alexa posts drum covers to her YouTube channel and Instagram page.

She is currently endorsed by @loscabosdrumsticks and Drum Flip.
