Drumeo launches second annual “Drummer of The Year Awards” and wants your vote!
Choose your favourite drummers across 15 categories now!
Last year, Drumeo launched its first ever Drummer of the Year Awards, and it’s back again for 2022. Drumeo wants your vote to help decide who the greatest players of 2022 were, across a range of 15 categories.
The awards feature 75 drummers across a range of 15 categories taking in everything from Best TikTok Drummer to Best Rock Drummer, and everything in between. Drumeo says of the awards,
“From the garage player to the Grammy Award-winning pro, everyone deserves recognition for their hard work and impact. We polled the drumming community and worked through dozens of names with an internal panel of drummers to come up with the list.”
Voting is open now, and closes on the 25th December, with a live-streamed awards show due to take place on January 27, 2023.
Casting your vote is simple, just click here, scroll through the categories and choose the drummers that you think deserve to win the most!

“Seeking a well-mannered, affable individual. Flashy chops are wonderful, but groove and the ability to listen, react, and contribute to the musical conversation is a must”: Primus put the call out for potential new drummer
“The human manifestation of the word ‘hip’... Always in the moment, always in this time, eternal and classic and at the same time totally nonchalant about it”: Jazz legend Roy Haynes dies aged 99
I'm a freelance member of the MusicRadar team, specialising in drum news, interviews and reviews. I formerly edited Rhythm and Total Guitar here in the UK and have been playing drums for more than 25 years (my arms are very tired). When I'm not working on the site, I can be found on my electronic kit at home, or gigging and depping in function bands and the odd original project.
