Heather King

Tenor Drummer from Chugiak, Alaska

Heather competed at her first solo event at the Alaska Highland Games in 2006, and has been drumming at every available moment since! She is an instructor for the Crow Creek Pipes and Drums in Anchorage, and an instructor for the Alaskan Youth Pipes and Drums group in Eagle River, Alaska. The majority of Heather's drumming instruction has come from Tyler Fry at numerous drumming schools. She has also learned a few things from Kevin MacHeffner, Mike Jett, and Andrew Hoinacki. While Heather is a tenor drummer at heart, she has pursued some snare drumming with lessons from Steven McWhirter, John Scullion, Reid Maxwell and Blair Brown. Heather has been playing with the JJCMPB since 2009.
