Russ Miller and Pete Lockett, “A North American and European perspective on Indian Rhythms for Drum Set and Percussion” #PASIC14 Live Blog
This is a clinic that is heavy on playing and light on talking,
Pete locket takes the stage. Solo on small frame drum with backing percussion rhythm.
Will Kennedy, “Drummers, Musicianship, and Sensitivity in Performance” #PASIC14 Live Blog
Will Kennedy may just about be the nicest person I’ve ever met. Having spent a little time with him backstage, I can say that there are few A-list artists I’ve met who are as humble, gracious, and disarming as this titan of drumming.
Carl Allen, “Drums as a Melodic Instrument” #PASIC14 Live Blog
Carl Allen’s resume reads as a who’s-who of jazz history sidemen. From Freddy Hubbard to Wayne Shorter, Carl has played with many jazz greats within the last 40 years.
Jason Sutter, “From Brushes to Blast Beats” #PASIC14 Live Blog
With music degrees from North Texas and Miami, Jason Sutter probably doesn’t seem like they type of drummer you’d find behind the likes of Marilyn Manson or the New York Dolls, but his background in rudimental percussion ends up coming in very handy on the road with hard-hitting acts.
Gregg Bissonette, “Musical Drumming in Different Styles” #PASIC14 Live Blog
Wiaitng to start.
Dixon’s first sponsored clinic! Bissonette is a real windfall for them. Gregg comes on stage, lots of smiles, and plays a bugle call… on trumpet!
