Oct 12, 2019

I sit down in Studio 2 @ legendary Sunset Sound Recorders in Hollywood, CA with one of the top touring drummers today, Johnny Radelat from the Gary Clark Jr band.  He started off growing up in Miami to then college at the University of Florida, eventually a move to Austin, TX to drum for the legendary group The Greyhounds. Then the formation of the Gary Clark Jr band in 2011 to as we know it today.  My favorite moment is  a memorable Red Rocks story of why his favorite venue was so crazy this time around. And just what it takes to be a good person in todays music climate. This is 2 hr long interview and below is an index. Thanks JR
