Drinks With Johnny

Lost in the Grandeur with KoЯn's Ray Luzier


Listen Later

This week we’re treated to a reunion of old friends as drummer Ray Luzier from KoЯn joins the show!

Coming off the heels of KoЯn’s 14th studio album, Requiem, Ray discusses how the group has begun focusing on the brand around the band. We find out how KoЯn Koffee came to fruition, and discover the masterful mind behind the bean. Ray opens up on his decision to leave California in favor in Tennessee, and how musicians of all genres have been migrating to the Nashville area.

We also get into Ray’s life before KoЯn. From his humble beginnings on a farm outside of Pittsburgh to creating a curriculum at Musician’s Institute in Los Angeles, we follow the path that led Ray to becoming the legendary drummer he is today. Of course we couldn’t forget Ray’s time working with David Lee Roth, and the wild stories he has with Diamond Dave.


We also learn on this episode:

  • Why Chad Smith didn’t last long at Musician's Institute
  • How Ray’s first audition with KoЯn went
  • The importance of the entertainment factor in music
  • What Head & Munky were doing at an exotic animal farm
