About
If you’re ready to break past the plateau and finally become the drummer you’ve always wanted to be, you’re in the right place. I’m Cameron Carbone — a nationally acclaimed drummer, educator, and founder of Paragon Drums — and I’ve helped over 500 drummers of all ages and skill levels unlock their true potential behind the kit. With a decade of professional teaching experience, a degree in Music Education, and over 15,000 hours of drum instruction under my belt, I specialize in creating tailored 1-on-1 lesson plans that actually work. Whether you’re struggling with hand speed, groove creativity, chops, odd time signatures, or performance anxiety, I’ve developed proven methods that deliver real results. No more cookie-cutter programs. No more wasted time. My studio in Dallas (co-owned with Clay Aeschliman of Polyphia) is built for serious progress, and virtual students worldwide benefit from the same high-quality experience. I’ve also toured nationally and internationally, recorded with professional artists, and run an educational platform followed by over 175,000 drummers across social media. My teaching style is energetic, customized, and focused on building confidence, clarity, and musical freedom. If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start making breakthroughs, let’s get to work. Spots are limited — I keep a small, dedicated roster to ensure every student gets the attention they deserve. Let’s level up your drumming, together.

Cameron is a fantastic player who not only has clear passion for drumming, but also teaching.As a 20+ year drummer who hadn't taken consistent in-person lessons in ages, I've been exposed to new ideas, techniques, and concepts from Cameron that I know will benefit my playing for years to come. For example, I hadn't realized I wasn't properly utilizing the stick's rebound as much as I should until he pointed it out!Plus, he's a great guy with a positive attitude. As soon as you arrive to his studio, he's always welcoming and makes you feel at home.Whether you're just starting out or have been at it for while, Cameron will provide plenty of value to your drumming journey. Highly recommended!

I went to the drum camp cameron and clay put on every year and as a well experienced drummer i learned an astonishing amount of stuff and still remember to this day, i also take personal drum lessons with cameron and the least i could say is hes one of the best teachers as a whole ive ever met and learned from, just from the short couple months i've been taking them i've seen the material from the lessons translate to my live shows which is an amazing feeling knowing i made the right choice

I started taking drum lessons about 5 months ago after having zero experience ever touching a drum set. I was looking to take lesson from someone who had experience playing the kind of music I wanted to learn how to play. Cameron not only took the time to talk through why I wanted to start playing and what I was hoping to accomplish, but is just genuinely a good teacher and super encouraging. I always leave our lessons feeling like I have learned something new. He makes himself available for any questions I may have and does his best to be flexible when scheduling lessons. Having never purchased a drum kit before, any time I had a question or needed a part recommendation he would make sure I got the answers I needed. I have enjoyed each lesson Ive had so far and look forward to learning all that I can.

11/10. Cameron is by far the best drum instructor that I have ever worked with. Regardless of how I show up, I will always walk out of the room with the perfect amount of guidance. I didnt start taking lessons with him until after Id attended their first Paragon Drum Camp (highly recommend going to one of these aswell). Based off of how informative that camp alone was, I could only imagine how good 1 on 1 lessons would be, and I was very right.

Ive been with Cameron Carbone for 5 years and those 5 years were the best Ive ever had with drums and the most progress I had ever made with any teacher. I had teachers in the past but Cameron really clicked with me and helped my career as a musician really start and grow into the drummer I am today. I would highly recommend you take lessons with him hes a blast to play with!
