8-Year-Old Girl Performs Difficult Led Zeppelin Song On Drums To Perfection
June 13, 2018
Yoyoka Soma is only 8 years old, but she's been playing drums her whole life.
"When I was a just small baby, my parents had a home studio and there were various kinds of instruments," she wrote on Vimeo. "My parents were performing music activities as amateur singer-songwriters and they cradled me with their music. When I listened to their songs and guitar performances, I was eager to join them and couldn’t stop beating out a rhythm. That was why I started playing the drums. The drum was the first instrument in which I felt an interest in my life. My parents’ music peers often visited us to play together. I was glued to the powerful and dynamic performances by the drummers. At age 2, I was playing the drums as if I were playing with toys. At age 4, I started performing at concerts."
In this new video for the 2018 "Hit Like A Girl Contest" (a global drumming contest for female percussionists) Yoyoka performs Led Zeppelin's "Good Times Bad Times."
Her dream is "to be the best drummer in the world." If you ask me she is well on her way to achieving that dream.
