Drummers on Drumming The Drum Panel: The Ultimate Compliment, Jazz Study—Essential or Overrated?, and Is the Band Drummer Era Over?
Episode 6 of The Drum Panel
This week's guests are two of my favorite drummers and people, Sarab Singh (MUNA) and Adam Christgau (Tegan and Sara).
In this episode, we dive into:
- What’s the greatest compliment a drummer can get, and does it truly matter?
- How do others really describe your playing style—are you sure you'd agree?
- Should every drummer dive into jazz, or is it a skill only some truly need?
- Has the golden era of iconic bands come to an end, or is it just evolving?
- Are music schools churning out technical robots at the cost of creative souls?
- Is practicing on pillows with heavy sticks a hidden secret or just a myth?
- Are quintuplets and sextuplets essential or a complete waste of practice time?
