Author Information

Larry Nolly has been one of the most respected leaders of tuning and caring for drums since the 1980's. A professional musician since the early 1960's, he has worked locally, nationally and internationally playing most styles of music. His gigs have had many varied venues including bars, theaters and nightclub shows, television, and recording studios. Larry has also been involved in music stores, having owned and managed a few of the most prestigious stores of their time. That's where his real expertise came to be known. In the October 1989 issue of Modern Drummer Larry's article titled Taking The Mystery Out Of Tuning was considered a breakthrough for many drummers struggling with tuning their drums. Now semi-retired, Larry no is longer involved with any music stores. But does continue to take on special project repairs of drums, and continues to be occasionally involved with tuning clinics, recording sessions, and playing gigs.
