About Me

Soh Wen Ming is a jazz drummer currently studying in the Berklee College of Music. While he is currently attending music school, his association with music started when he was 12 years old in church. Later on he got to hang with many of Singapore's best jazz musicians such as Jeremy Monteiro, Christy Smith, Eddie Layman, Mei Shuem and others. He also studied for five years under one of Singapore's greatest drummers, the late Edmond Branson Jr. In 2006 Wen Ming, with financial support from both the Berklee College of Music and the Singapore National Arts Council, began his journey at the Berklee College of Music. In his time there he has studied with great teachers such as Hal Crook, Ed Tomassi, Jon Hazilla, Ian Froman, Dave Samuels and Ralph Peterson. Much of his musical education also came in the form of nightly jam sessions with top tier students in the school. Wen Ming is currently completing his degree in music with a concentrate in performance. He hopes to always involve himself in creative musical projects that reflect the search for truth.
