What a special episode this is! Our dear friend Guy Licata joined us to chat to y'all about the world of product development, marketing, and branding in the drum industry. Eddy and I did our best to stay out of the way so that Guy could drop knowledge bombs and that is EXACTLY what he did.

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

As drummers we all tend to put a little too much importance on fills but are the fills themselves really that important? Eddy and I are both of the opinion that the purpose of your fill, when it's played, and how well it's executed is far more important than the actual fill itself. This episode explores the why and then when of fills instead of the what.

Sitting down on the kit and jamming to a song is a beautiful thing, but we sometimes take for granted just how much of a safety blanket the music can be. In this episode Eddy and I discuss ways to get comfortable "speaking" on the kit without music. Evolving  your drumming from beats and fills to having a fluid sense of flow on the kit. As you'll hear from both of us, it's much easier said than done!

Enjoy :)

This past week I gave 4 clinics in 4 different states. Each clinic was a slight evolution from the night before. It wasn't until the 4th and final night that the true clinic emerged and I had clarity on what I wanted to do at the UK Drum Show. In this episode Eddy and  will discuss that process, as well as answer a few questions from our amazing Patrons.

Enjoy - Mike & Eddy

This phrase can take shape in multiple ways and both Eddy and I have experienced that bad wolf far too many times. Luckily we have spent our careers trying to kick it's ass, so in this episode we will walk you through the steps we take to ensure that the GOOD WOLF always comes out on top!

Enjoy!

How much does your personality matter when it comes to creating a brand around your drumming? Probably a lot more than you might imagine. Whether you are trying to attract the attention of other musicians, producers, MDs, or future students, your brand is SO much more than just your drumming! Let's discuss...

Do you need to wait until Jan. 1st to "get serious" about your drumming? Do you need to start your new practice routine on a Monday? The phycological effects of a fresh start are very real and we all fall prey to them at times. In this episode Eddy and I will chat about why when something is truly worth doing you just DO IT! 

Enjoy!

This was the most fun Eddy and I have had creating an episode in as long as we can remember, and that's saying something! We hope you find a ton of value in this episode and maybe a few "left blinker" laughs along the way, lol.
