From Family Act to Solo Artist, Drummer Finds Success in Rhythm

Isabelle de Leon decided at age seven that she would play the drums. She started playing piano at age four and after hearing a comment in the movie “Selena” about how girls don’t play the drums, Isabelle has worked at proving the sentiment false.
