"Big" Mike Clemons - Interview

Submitted by webadmin on: Saturday, Nov 14, 2009

There are musicians, producers, sound engineers, and if you combine all of them all you might get someone as talented as "Big" Mike Clemons. He does it all, and regardless of old saying it truly does takes a master to be a jack of all trades. Mike's love for the instrument began with playing pots and pans on the kitchen floor and his ability and drum kits have grown ever since. After graduating high school in 1994 "Big" Mike has performed with Israel Houg ... more »

 

Jay "Diesel" Soldano - Interview

Submitted by notsodrummer on: Saturday, Nov 14, 2009

At a glance, Jay "Diesel" Soldano is quite an intimidating site and watching his performance on the kit makes him seem even less approachable. He's big, solid, and has an extreme stage presence - pounding and playing the drums like it's for the last time…every time! The guy is just intense! But once you get past the muscles and make up you'll find out that Jay is an awesome guy who just loves people and loves what he does.The last time Drummer Connection interv ... more »

 

Larone "Skeeter" McMillian - Interview

Submitted by notsodrummer on: Saturday, Nov 14, 2009

Lately a lot of people have come to realize what some have known all along… some of the greatest drummers over the past 20 years have been spawned from the church and gospel music scene.  So much in fact that companies are even making their own "gospel" product lines in order to cater to what some would even call a trend.  But anyone in the pop or R&B scene knows that certain talents and entities can't and won't be denied… one such phenomenon is Larone & ... more »

 

John Humphrey - Seether - Interview

Submitted by notsodrummer on: Saturday, Nov 14, 2009

If you've listened to the radio in the past 6 years there's no way you could miss a band called Seether. Hailing from South Africa,  Seether has achieved main stream success with smash hits such as Broken, Remedy, Fake It, and several classic cover songs - all of which contribute to their multi-platinum album sales accumulated from a worldwide fan base. (Five million and STILL counting) In October 2003, Seether welcomed John Humphrey (formerly of The Nixons) to be the man entrusted wi ... more »

 

Lil' Mike Mitchell - Interview

Submitted by webadmin on: Saturday, Nov 14, 2009

There are hundreds young drummers and child prodigies in the world today. Just go on Youtube and you'll find about a million videos of adolescent musicians playing odd time grooves with chops for days. But very few of them play with the control and emotional maturity of a seasoned veteran, occasionally you do find one that separates themselves from all the rest. Drummer Connection had the benefit of interviewing one such prodigy as I sat down with none other than Lil' Mike Mitchell. A ... more »

 

Brent Easton - Interview

Submitted by - - D - - on: Friday, Nov 13, 2009

  D.C. What is it you like about ddrum and how did you become to part of this awesome family? B.E. What I love about ddum is that it feels like a family. It’s not just all about the drums, even though their drums are great. The relationship between the artists and the reps are great – even Elliott the owner, they showed us they care. We have conversations, we go bowling, it’s not always about drums. I can call them and be like: “ ... more »

bmgdrummer Says A Sincere Thanks-

How cool is this! I am so thankful to be a featured part of this site. What a killer opportunity for me to share a little about me and my passion for drums. Its a wonderful "disease" that many of us are infected with, and I am glad to be able to give a little insight to other drummers out there that want to soak up any material or info to inspire and push their drumming to new levels. Very happy to contribute to our world of percussive music, and thanks for allowing me the forum to do such, guys! Just wish I had some time to learn those tunes DrumFreak and Rotcav asked me to jam along with!! I feel like I just hacked through them, but it still was fun. Stay tuned for some lesson stuff that Billy has inspired me to prepare and work on to share with all the drummers here. We drummers are so lucky to have drummerconnection.com available to us to learn from and contribute our own ideas and tips to. Suffice to say, drummers rule!

Kevin,

Thanks for coming out! We look forward to our continued experiences together. You're a truly awesome musician. Even though those tracks were introduced to you that day, you still did a great job through them. You've got the chops and grooves for sure! We'll let you take another whack at them any time. Remember, these were all from our playalongs section: https://drummerconnection.com/playalongs

Give us a call! We look forward to hooking up with you again!

drumfreak Says Great stuff!

Kevin,

It was an honor to have you out here and jam with us. It's been a long time in the making and we appreciate you sharing your story with us. Keep on rocking in Blue Man Group, you've got a hell of a gig there! We look forward to more video footage of you here soon!

It was an honor to have you out at the drum room and be a part of interview, and most importantly to me, be able to jam with you a little. We rocked it dude, as did you and Billy and Eric! Great times, one of many more I'm sure. See you on the other side bro.
