Bradley Rivera

Bradley began his marching career in Rock Hill, South Carolina, and has since been involved heavily in the cymbal community. As a performer in high school, he was introduced to marching cymbals as Civitas Independent (15-17) and later joined the WCU Pride of the Mountains cymbal line post-graduation. Eager to push the boundary of the instrument further, Bradley spent the following seasons performing on the World Class level with the Colts Drum and Bugle Corps (18-21) and Rhythm X (18-22) in their respective cymbal lines.

Bradley is devoted to spreading cymbal knowledge across the activity. In addition to giving private lessons, he has spent multiple seasons teaching at various ensembles including Centerville HS, For Mill HS, Buncombe Beats, Northeastern HS, Sycamore HS, and most recently the Colts Drum and Bugle Corps. Bradley is very excited to continue his marching arts journey, teaching with the Crossmen.
