On this day 12-months ago Clem Burke sadly passed away. Clem was the inspirational figurehead of the Clem Burke Drumming Project. Clem’s legacy continues, with 3 new school-based projects starting next week. Research has shown drumming has a positive effect on health & wellbeing.

Clem Burke’s legacy will grow in 2026. New research projects planned exploring health benefits of drumming - supported by academic colleagues, drumming community and general public. As Clem said ‘There’s more to drumming than having a beer and walking on stage!’ @BlondieOfficial
