Quarter Notes 22: Jord Samolesky (Propagandhi)

#quarternotes #JordSamolesky #propagandhi #AtPeaceYou want to talk about a bucket list guest…….well, this is a conversation I never thought I would have had in my lifetime…..Jord Samoleski from one of my all time favourite bands Propagandhi!!I was able to have a great one on one chat with the godfather or prog punk drumming the day before Propagandhi’s new album ‘At Peace’ was released. We talk about his journey through music, growing up just outside of Winnipeg and getting into punk rock shows (before he was old enough to get into the clubs), the importance of protecting your hearing, and nerd out on drum gear and how he’s adapted his set up over the last couple of years.This is by far one of my all time favourite conversations, and was all caught on camera…so sit back and enjoy one of the greatest Canadian drummers to ever site behind a kit…..Jord Samoleski.00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:27 - Conversation with Jord01:10:50 - CRASH Questions01:34:09 - OutroJord is not on social media, but if you want to see what he and the band are up to….go and follow Propagandhi:https://www.instagram.com/propagandhi_official/https://www.youtube.com/@Propagandhiofficialhttps://www.facebook.com/PropagandhiFor all things Los Cabos Drumsticks visit:https://loscabosdrumsticks.com/

The term chosen family comes up now and again, and this guy has been my brother since the day we met while I was skateboarding in the Irving gas station parking lot.

#QuarterNotes #JohnWright #DeadBob #NoMeansNo This is a BIG ONE!! For all you punk rock elites out there….my guest is one of Canada’s pioneer punk rock drummers…John Wright!
