caption_attribution_description: English: The Contestants at the SECOND edition of DRUMQUEST
context_page_description: DrumQuest is a biannual contest for drummers held in Ukraine.
context_section_description: DrumQuest was launched in March 2016 by Tobi "Medic Drums" Fatonade, (born Olutobi David Fatonade), a Nigerian drummer endorsed by Starsticks who is currently living and playing in Ukraine. DrumQuest brings together different, talented but previously unknown drummers for a contest to provide a platform for their exposure to the world. The winner also goes home with a prize. 
  DrumQuest, which is currently open to drummers of all ages, also provides an opportunity for young drummers to be mentored by established drummers. DrumQuest has grown to become a bi-annual event and has been touted by some media outlets as "Europe's Biggest Drumming Contest".
