My name is Mike Veny and I'm a professional drummer in New York City.
Drumming is my passion and I have been studying it since 1989.
As a child, I was inspired by the musical interludes on the show, Sesame Street.


I perform with Kim Oler, an Emmy Award winning composer for ABC’s All My Children, As the World Turns, The Tracey Ullman Show, and The Guiding Light.


I also perform with Sean 360x & the universoul spiRitual Ankhestra alongside percussionist Ramsey Jones of the Wu-Tang Clan family. He is a MySpace chartopping artist & has been #1 on the ReverbNation Electronica/Dance charts for over 16 weeks.


Currently, I have a private drum lesson practice with students of all ages.

I also enjoy facilitating drum circles.


I absolutely love drumming to music that requires a strong back beat!
