In this special episode of The Musician’s Musician, I finally get to sit down with someone I’ve been wanting to talk to for years—Nick Costa. No, not me, your host... the other Nick Costa!

You might know him from his wildly impressive “Guess the Song” series on TikTok and Instagram, where he’s posted over 700 drum covers without backing tracks (and nails every one of them). He’s a monster talent behind the kit, and he’s got some exciting projects in the works that we dig into.

We talk about what it’s like sharing a name in the music world, his unique approach to content creation, and why the artist Mammoth (aka Wolfgang Van Halen,) and specifically the album Mammoth II, was his pick for our deep dive.
