Due to COVID-19 and numerous requests from the drumming community—and after reviewing all the options—we are extending the 2020 Hit Like A Girl contest for 2 weeks. Our first priority is to make sure that everyone stays safe but we hope that this decision will allow drummers the additional time they may need to produce their videos. The contest entry period will now close on April 26. See more info here, check back for further updates and, above all, stay safe!
extended entry ends / voting starts
Congratulations to the Hit Like A Girl 2020 Week 3 Winners!
