Screenings of A Drummer's Dream - Toronto, ON
Long & McQuade is pleased to support the Toronto release of the acclaimed John Walker documentary, A Drummer's Dream.
A Drummer’s Dream focuses on a rare assembly of some of the greatest drummers in the world, showcasing their explosive talent, passion, humour and personality. Filmed in a remote setting during a drum camp for emerging musicians, this extraordinary film explores the power of music to inspire and unite.
It features Nasyr Abdul Al-Khabyyr, Dennis Chambers, Kenwood Dennard, Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez, Giovanni Hidalgo, Mike Mangini and Raul Rekow, awe-inspiring musicians who have backed up the likes of Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Carlos Santana and now – each other. Their music, from Latin rhythms and rock to jazz and soul, seduces Walker – once a promising drummer himself – as well as viewers.
