We go across the pond to find out what it's like to hit like a girl and we're talking about hitting drums. Our guest is Samantha Lubin a busy Drummer, Percussionist, and Drum Teacher based in North London, UK. Samantha’s main gig currently is playing percussion with various artists and bands. 

She most recently performed at the World Cup in Qatar and performs internationally regularly as a session percussionist. Samantha trained at Paul McCartney’s school, LIPA, and graduated with a BA (HONS) Degree in Music. Before her degree, she studied for the Diploma of Popular Music and Sound Technology again at LIPA. Upon Graduating, Samantha was awarded the Zildjian Prize which is presented annually to one drummer every year in recognition of their hard work and dedication to their instrument. 

Samantha’s original band “BABYTEETH” was part of the ISAWITFIRST music campaign and was the main support act for Adam Ant at The Roundhouse in Camden. Festivals they have played at include Kendal Calling, Neighbourhood Festival, and Live at Leeds. 

In 2022 Samantha was in the final 25 drummers in her age category in the Hit Like A Girl Contest and she came 2nd in the UK Territory. She is currently working on the sister project “Drumming Connects Us” as the talent coordinator. This year she will be acting as a judge for part of the contest.
