For those who find the place behind the drum kit more exciting than the frontman or frontwoman's spotlight, MyDrumLesson.com is for you. The new website features videos, transcriptions, a message board, and other resources dedicated to helping indie rock drummers improve their craft.

My Drum Lesson founder Scott Tiemann has assembled an impressive list of over 50 drummers to contribute to the site, including Battles' John Stanier, Deerhoof's Greg Saunier, Cale Parks of Aloha, Erin Tate of Minus the Bear, and Superchunk's Jon Wurster.

Access to the majority of the site's content is only available with a paid membership, but five percent of proceeds from those memberships will go to Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Tiemann organized the donation to the online resource center with the help of J Robbins, whose son Callum suffers from SMA.
