As well as this, Drumeo would like your help deciding on the online creator, performance and recording of the year.

Drumeo says of the decision to launch their awards, “Every year, drummers around the world accomplish amazing things. From ‘how did they do that’ performances to tasteful recordings and creative initiatives, musicians are making moves and taking names.
"In 2021 in particular, their drumming is inspiring people to get through a difficult time, encouraging others to express themselves on the instrument. So we decided that this would be the perfect time to launch an awards program to recognize drummers who stood out this year."
