Being a professional musician can sometimes get you VERY burnt out on...music. But, I've been releasing music on Spotify and it has been an amazing "creative escape" for me. Not only have a learned a ton during the process, but it has revitalized my love of music.

Drummers Play the Same Groove (Hear a Difference)? - feat Stephen Taylor Feb 18, 2020

Show notes

Today on the show I'm running a little experiment with my good friend Stephen Taylor. Stephen and I sat down and recorded the same exact 5 grooves to see how two drummers interpret the same grooves.

Stephen has a fantastic podcast called "The Drum Show" which you can find more about that here: https://www.stephensdrumshed.com/the-drum-show-podcast/

Are Chops and Fills "Bad"? Feb 11, 2020

Show notes

I love drum grooves. I also love drum fills and chops. Can these two things coexist?

Personally, I think they can. Drummers seem to debate this A LOT on the internet, so let's get into it.

Jeff Porcaro vs. 2020 Jan 21, 2020

Show notes

Jeff Porcaro is one of the most legendary drummers of all time. I recently heard a masterclass from 1986 he gave at the Musicians Institute. He talks a TON about the music industry so I figured I'd compare some of what Jeff talks about in 1986 to my take on the "modern music industry" of 2020.

The original masterclass video can be found here:
