Where music is a journey, not a destination

Our Story

At Drum & Strum Music Center, we have been enriching lives through music for over three decades. Our journey began in 1988, when our founder, Tim Dingus, received a 1972 tobacco sunburst Gibson Les Paul guitar as a gift. With no prior knowledge of playing the guitar, Tim embarked on a musical journey that would change his life forever. A few years later, Tim's sister, Cheryl, encouraged him to learn how to play the guitar, while Tim's mother, Gloria, saw an opportunity to start a music store. And so, Drum & Strum Music Center was born.

Our History

Gloria, Tim's mother, had always been passionate about music and saw an opportunity to start a music store. With the support of her husband, Gary, and the entire family, Gloria's dream became a reality. Tim and his sister Cheryl, along with Bobby Hawkins from Woodbridge, Virginia, formed the band Blue Revolution, which quickly gained popularity in the Metropolitan D.C. area. Gloria's dream of starting a music store became a reality, and Drum & Strum Music Center was officially opened.
