Drummer salaries fluctuate based on the caliber of the musician and the scenario. Typically, professional drummers make $30,000 to $150,000 a year in a major market. A well-known drummer averages $500 per show. According to Drum Dojo, drumming pay at a home studio for a non-union song starts at $25. For a recording session with a top producer and record label artist, payment increases to roughly $500. The sky is the limit for widely popular band drummers at the height of success. The band Coldplay earned a massive $81.6 million dollars in concert tickets and album sales in 2008, a portion of which drummer Will Champion receives.
