Bobby Figueroa - Interview

Since the band was formed in 1961 the Beach Boys have become a staple of American music culture. The group has had thirty-six U.S. Top 40 hits (the most of any U.S. rock band) and fifty-six Hot 100 hits, including four number one singles. They have often been called "America's Band" and Allmusic.com has stated that "the band's unerring ability… made them America's first, best rock band." Although the lineups have changes throughout the years Bobby Figueroa commanded the drums from the mid-seventies until 1990. Now playing with Al Jardine and other artists, Bobby also stays involved in the local community by teaching music at several schools throughout the area Southern California. While at the Los Cabos Drumsticks booth Bobby was kind enough to speak with us about his upcoming album and why Los Cabos is his stick of choice.

Submitted by King on: Monday, Jan 25, 2010

In 2005 a collaboration of artists from around the globe set out to redefine the modern day recording process of how studio albums are created.

Hannah Ford - Interview

Submitted by King on: Wednesday, Jan 6, 2010

The contraption known as the "trap set" or "drum kit" was developed out of necessity over 100 years ago and has since revolutionized the way we play drums. People of all ages, races, and creeds have made their contributions to perfect the instrument and how it's played. However, women who have found themselves underneath it's spotlight have been very few and far between. Some cultures have even viewed the drums as being "unladylike& ... more »

Submitted by King on: Thursday, Dec 31, 2009

        When playing drums the placement of your kit means everything. Not having your equipment properly set up and anchored can cause you to become distracted and really affect the outcome of your performance. Having to deal with kick drums and hardware sliding away from you has been a continuous problem even with the advancement of drum rugs. It seems everything with the drums has evolved except what we choose t ... more »
