Michael O'Rourke
Drum instructor at Jeff Denny’s music station

Michael O’Rourke is a drummer from the Suffolk County area who loves to play gigs, teach students, and write music. He started playing in the fourth grade school band, played percussion through high school and college, and began playing gigs with various bands during college. He has an eclectic range of styles from funk to metal, and jazz to classic rock and jam bands. You can find him performing all over Long Island from Jones Beach to Montauk, and from Meschutt Beach to Bobbique in Patchogue.

Mike is currently playing in two actively gigging bands. The first is a jam band from Patchogue called Soundwell, and the other is a “kindie” rock band called Darlene Graham and the Shades of Green Band. Both bands are fun and high energy, family-friendly bands. We are happy to have him teaching at Jeff Denny’s Music Station
