The drum studio has been alive with energy this season as several students stepped up to record brand-new songs during their lessons with Josh Kastleman Drum Lessons in Tooele County, Utah. From classic rock anthems to modern hits, each student continues to grow in skill, confidence, and creativity — all while having fun behind the kit.
Let’s take a look at the latest round of recordings from Caden, Camden, Carter, Elias, Marcus, and Moses, each performing iconic songs that challenged their timing, technique, and groove.
Caden – “Tribute” by Tenacious D
Caden brought his usual energy and humor to his latest recording of “Tribute” by Tenacious D, the comedic rock masterpiece written by Jack Black and Kyle Gass. Originally featuring the legendary drummer Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Foo Fighters fame, “Tribute” mixes hard-hitting rock grooves with playful dynamics — perfect for an expressive player like Caden.

Camden – “Move Along” by The All-American Rejects
Camden showcased his growing control and drive with “Move Along” by The All-American Rejects, a 2005 pop-punk anthem from the band’s second studio album. The original drumming by Chris Gaylor delivers a tight, energetic groove that keeps the song’s momentum pushing forward — an excellent challenge for developing drummers learning endurance and consistency.
Carter – “Nothing Else Matters” by Metallica
Carter took on one of the most iconic rock ballads ever recorded — “Nothing Else Matters” by Metallica. With Lars Ulrich behind the kit on the original track, the song balances emotional intensity with slow, powerful drum fills. Performing this song helped Carter refine his sense of timing, touch, and dynamic control — essential skills for any serious drummer.
Elias D – “Human” by Rag’n’Bone Man
Elias made a powerful impression with his rendition of “Human” by Rag’n’Bone Man. The song, known for its deep vocals and soulful rhythm, demands careful control and feel on the drums. Elias worked on bringing out the groove that gives this track its unique pulse, focusing on balance and musical phrasing throughout his recording.
Marcus – “It’s My Life” by Bon Jovi
Marcus delivered a strong and confident performance of “It’s My Life” by Bon Jovi, featuring drumming originally by Tico Torres. This 2000 rock anthem is a reminder that timeless songs never fade — and Marcus captured that same spirit in his performance. His focus on groove and energy brought the classic back to life in the Tooele studio.
Moses – “good 4 u” by Olivia Rodrigo
Moses brought modern pop-rock flair to the studio with “good 4 u” by Olivia Rodrigo. This song blends pop-punk attitude with fast-paced drumming and high energy. It’s a great test of coordination and stamina — and Moses handled it like a pro. His performance shows how today’s students can learn both classic and current hits in their drum lessons.
