The one with Karl Sloman
In this episode of Offbeat with Paul Hose, Paul sits down with drummer, educator, clinician and all-round larger-than-life character Karl Sloman.
Karl’s career has taken him from performing and teaching to clinics, masterclasses and appearances at major drum events around the world. An artist with Dream Cymbals, Karl brings the same energy, enthusiasm and unmistakable personality to this conversation that he brings to the drum kit.
The conversation covers Karl’s journey through music, the realities of building a life around being a professional musician, teaching, performing, the people and experiences that have shaped him, and his continued passion for drums and drumming.
Karl also talks about Opus Rex, the progressive rock project featuring Karl alongside guitarist and composer CJ Crews, bassist Michael Dearing and vocalist Mark Boals.
As you might expect, the conversation occasionally wanders gloriously off course.
There are stories. Opinions. Laughs. Strong personalities. A little mildly colourful language. And plenty of moments that capture exactly why Karl is such a memorable character.
This is an energetic, candid and thoroughly entertaining conversation with a musician who has spent decades doing what he loves — and who still has plenty to say about it.
This is The One with Karl Sloman.

A small note for listeners: this episode contains some mildly colourful language, and the views and opinions expressed by Karl during the conversation are his own and do not necessarily reflect those of Paul Hose or Offbeat.
