Empowering Musicians with Disabilities 

Sam's Brightside for Hire 

Sam, 32, grew up in White Plains, NY, and was born with Down syndrome. He has been playing drums and studying at Lagond Music School for 15 years. Music has always been a big part of his life.

As a teenager, he was obsessed with Green Day, but his musical tastes now range widely—from pop and rock to rap and even Frank Sinatra. Sam knows over 300 songs and can often identify a tune after hearing only 3 or 4 notes.

He has two younger brothers who also love music and study guitar and piano. Sam is a Pokémon aficionado and enjoys hiking, theater, and spending time with his girlfriend, Anna. He currently lives in a residential home in Yorktown, NY.

Band Members:

  • Sam Glucksman – Drums

  • John Marc DeGaard – Bass, Auxiliary Vocals

  • Hayden Martin – Keys, Auxiliary Vocals
