Dexter Hurren—a Brisbane born and Sunshine Coast based drummer musician—began drumming at 13 years old, Dexter began working professionally as a musician at 15 years of age and continues to do so at 19 years of age. Dexter is recognised for his musicality, technical facility, versatility, and work ethic. These qualities reinforce a strong desire to serve music and creatively collaborate.

While predominantly self-taught and self-directed in his practice, Dexter has received lessons from incredible musicians and educators such as Declan Kelly, Felix Bloxsom, Ben Vanderwall, Benjamin Shannon, Greg Sheehan, Simon Barker, Alex Hirlian, Jackie Barnes and more. Dexter has also been taught some of his most valuable musical lessons and values from his parents, Katie Noonan and Zac Hurren. 

Thousands of hours of practice and lots of luck led to the privilege of playing with artists such as Katie and Tyrone Noonan (george), Tim Rogers (You Am I), Alex Lloyd, Frente!, Jack Carty, Charm of Finches, Andrea Kirwin, Dustyn Lee Stephen, Whitt’s End, Layla Havana and more. 

Dexter’s goal is not only to continuously develop his command over his instrument, but to become the best possible musician he can be.

Dexter aims to share his love for music and to help artists realise their musical vision.
