    E15 - Steve Smith

    For most of us, Steve Smith needs no introduction. He’s simply one of the most influential drummers of our time.  He was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame for his work with JourneyHe’s also considered one of the top jazz and fusion drummersHe’s led his own group Vital information for more than 40 yearsOn top of all that he’s produced some of the best educational books and videos for drummers - I’m currently obsessed with the brush video he did with Adam Nussbaum where they sit down with Billy Hart, Eddie Locke, Joe Morello, Charlie Persip and Ben Riley who demonstrate their technique. It’s incredible.Anyway, it’s a huge deal that I got to talk to Steve. I’ve been a fan since I was a teenager.  Before we get going I want to give a big thanks to friend of the show Scott Amendola for connecting us. And of course, I have to thank Steve for being so generous with his time.  https://www.vitalinformation.com/ https://www.instagram.com/stevesmithdrums/ https://www.youtube.com/stevesmithchannel The music included with this episode is Sumo by Vital Information.
