“He gets up in the morning and he starts to drum, and he drums all day, and that’s just it,” Teddy’s mum Claire told BBC News NI.
The toddler from Portadown, County Armagh, got his first drum on his first birthday.
“He’d be sitting in his high chair with his spoons in his hand and he was always drumming, always banging,” Claire said.
Claire credits Teddy’s father’s family and Rectory Community Action Group for nurturing Teddy’s love for drumming through group sessions with local bands.
“We would attend quite a few band parades throughout the year and it’s just something that he really, really loves,” she said.
“He’s in awe every time he sees them going past, and he loves the Lambeg drum as well, it’s not just the side drum, he’s obsessed with drums in general.”
After sharing videos of the young drummer on social media, Claire says the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive.
“They are just completely baffled by how someone so small can play the way he does,” she added.
