FRESHKILS is a producer / performer from Toronto Canada. He is one of the world's premier Finger Drummers, with millions of youtube hits, and hundreds upon hundreds of live shows on his reumee. 

Kils joins me to talk about preparation H, sampling, touring, and the time he got headbutted in the face outside his own show. He and I have done some touring together and have known eachother for years... so this conversation is less interview and more like two friends catching up

Mark has unique experience and a wealth of knowledge to draw his conclusions from, and he drops a lot of very valuable bits of information throughout this podcast. Definitely an episode that will bring you value if you are curious at all about the business side of music.
