Mike Johnston - Behind the scenes of business, drums, dogs, and home life

Send us Fan Mail

What an opener to the new season!
Mike Johnston is joining us to kick off our autumn 2025 episodes, and we take the chance to ask him about the family he has supporting him behind the scenes. What keeps him ticking when he’s not at a drum kit? And what will we see at his Education Room at this year’s UK Drum Show in Liverpool?

This episode gives a different slant on the well-known, international drum teacher and entrepreneur; hear about the sometimes heart-wrenching volunteer work that he and his wife Amber are busy with, and how their unique partnership keeps his teaching business propelling forward into new realms.
