Ever since he was a child the drums were the instrument which fascinated and inspired Marc Bollow the most. At the age of eight, he got his first drumset. But already before, he played on everything he could find. At the age of twelve, Marc Bollow got his first drum lessons.
It quickly became clear that the instrument and the passion for music should be also his profession. He followed this wish without any compromise. He took lessons with well-known teachers and at music schools and started his studies at the European branch oft he „Drummers Collective“ in Hagenau at France. In 2015 Marc Bollow participated at a three-week training at the „Drummers Collective“ in New York. Furthermore, he took private lessons with Dave Weckl, Bernhard Purdie, John Riley, Aaron Comess, Chris Coleman, Pat Petrillo, Chester Thompson, Kim Plainfield and Vince Cherico.
Since 15 years Marc Bollow works as a drum teacher. He’s also the musical director oft he „Musikschule Saar“ at Saarbrücken and he is the owner of his „Drumschool Marc Bollow“. He also offers workshops like a three-week workshop at the „Club Aldiana (Fuerteventura) or at different schools.
