Welcome to the 12th episode of the Troubled Artists Podcast. In today’s episode, I’m interviewing singer and drummer, Clementine Moss.

Clementine Moss is the founder and drummer of Zepparella, with a busy solo career as a singer and songwriter.

Her book, "From Bonham to Buddha and Back: The Slow Enlightenment of the Hard Rock Drummer" uses her music career as metaphor for contemplative practice.

Clem moved to New York City with a creative writing degree after college, and her writing path gave way to a musical one when she found drumming. In 2016, she began her blog Bliss and Drumming, and many of those pieces are found in various forms in, and were the impetus for, her book:

Clementine is a spiritual counselor and a nondenominational Minister at The Foundation for the Sacred Stream. Using the modalities of Depth Hypnosis, Applied Shamanism, Energy Medicine, Sound Healing, and Morphic Awakening techniques, Clem has an active healing practice. She is certified in Contemplative Psychotherapy and Conflict Resolution. A Vipassana meditator for over thirty years, her study and personal practice spans many traditions.

She lives in San Francisco with music manager and musician Tim Moss, and Henry the pug. Her writing has appeared in Modern Drummer Magazine, Memoir Magazine, and several other online publications.
