Stanton Moore

He also travels internationally to teach New Orleans drumming, writes regularly for drumming magazines, and releases instructional books and videos. In 2017 Moore established the Stanton Moore Drum Academy.

In 2017 Moore launched the Stanton Moore Drum Academy as a forward thinking online educational community for drummers and teachers of all levels and styles. The drumming curriculum is divided into several categories. Studies begin with A Fresh Approach to the Drumset, a comprehensive pedagogy co penned with well respected veteran educator, Mark Wessels. The instructional content is broken into 34 video lessons, with accompanying notation, and progresses from beginning to advanced material. Moore's Academy Lessons offer more advanced extensions of the Fresh Approach fundamentals. Written Lessons are Moore's personal worksheets, taken from ideas explored in his own practice sessions. The Academy places a strong emphasis on community. Members are offered a monthly Facebook chat with Moore himself, with each month's video posted to an on-site archive. Additional interactive opportunities include a user forum, and blog. Subscribers may submit video clips of themselves playing their favorite beats. Each month, Moore selects and posts one beat with a video response of him playing his version of the same beat. There is also an associated Instructional Academy which provides lesson platforms and marketing assistance for music teachers seeking to bring their curriculum online.

In July 2011 issue of Modern Drummer, Moore won the reader polls in both the Educational Book, and Educational DVD, categories for his Groove Alchemy educational series.

Moore has collaborated with Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine and Boots Riley of the Coup on a project under the name Street Sweeper Social Club, which released an album on June 16, 2009.

At the 2009 Winter NAMM Show in Anaheim, California Stanton Moore introduced a signature model snare drum under his own brand, The Stanton Moore Drum company of New Orleans. The drum is 4.5" x 14" made of titanium. Stanton worked closely with drum designer Ronn Dunnett to create a drum that embodied the sound of a classic vintage snare drum that Stanton had once owned.

As of 2008 some of Moore's recent projects include the Stanton Moore Trio, Garage A Trois and the Midnite Disturbers. Moore performs with his Stanton Moore Trio including a variety of local and visiting musicians in New Orleans. As a trio he has toured nationally with keyboardist Robert Walter and guitarist Will Bernard. Additionally, Walter and Bernard are the credited musicians on Moore's two most recent solo albums. Moore continues to perform with his co-founded Garage A Trois with Skerik, Mike Dillon and Marco Benevento. Moore organized the all-star brass band Midnite Disturbers with drummer Kevin O'Day. The Midnite Disturbers are Trombone Shorty and Jamelle Williams on trumpets, Big Sam and Mark Mullins on trombones, Ben Ellman and Skerik on saxophones, Jeffery Hills on sousaphone and Kevin O’Day and Moore on drums.

Moore released Emphasis! (On Parenthesis) on Telarc April 2008 as Stanton Moore Trio. The trio consists of longtime associates Robert Walter and Will Bernard.
