'He lived in New York, and now he's at Fork's,

DJ in both name and in mind;

He's the one on that track, that makes you lean back,

A King of a different kind.'

EP.8 - "Maxwell's House" Oct 17, 2020

This episode features our conversation with our owner Steve Maxwell. Who is he? Where did he come from? Why open a drum store? Does Espresso taste better from a tiny cup? Come along as we venture over the hill and through the woods, to Maxwell's House we go!

EP.7 - "A Dent in the Ice" Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

This episode features our conversation with Matt Iceman and Fork's Alum, Will Denton. Matt and Will both are Nashville Legends. Matt has played with the likes of Eric Paslay, the Chirs Weaver band, and of course Spyderwulf, and over the years, Will has been behind the kit for DC Talk, LeAnn Rimes, Gretchen Wilson, and Steven Curtis Chapman. In a world where the gap between us and our heroes seems to grow ever larger, we speak with two friends who undermine that idea. The idea of influence and camaraderie, marinated in years of friendship, tossed in special sauce, and deep-fried to perfection to make a crispy, yet juicy story for all to hear!

EP.6 - "The Full Nelson" Jul 26, 2020

Show notes

This episode features our conversation with the owner of "Nelson Drum Shop" the man himself, Bryson Neslon! If antiques, vintage drums, and converted school buses were the Charlie's Angels of East Nashville, Bryson would undoubtedly be Bosley. Walking away from explosions has never looked so humble. Thanks for having us @nelsondrumshop!

Show notes

This episode features our conversation with the man who has the strength of 7 elephants, the wit of the trickster god Loki, and the humility of Mother Teressa, Paul Snyder. A long time Fork's employee and an even longer friend to the drummers and session players in Nashville, Paul sits down with us to fondly look back on his time at the shop, and to remind us that anyone wishing to arm wrestle him, will only leave with a broken wrist and a shattered spirit.
