Teacher Spotlight: Tony Del Castillo – Drums

“I don’t really want to hear, at the Academy is “I can’t,” because, you can.

Tony is a well-qualified teacher and AMB graduate with a master’s degree in Commercial Music from Cal State LA and a bachelor’s degree in Jazz Studies from USC.  He is especially qualified to impart rhythmic wisdom to the students at AMB because he too is blind. In sharing his personal experiences of adapting to and thriving in the world without sight, he is a beacon of inspiration for all of his students.
