Billy's guest on Drum Channel Brian Tichy is one of rock music's most in-demand-hired guns. Playing drums since he's eight years old and teaching himself guitar four years later, Tichy went on to attend Berklee College of Music. Shortly after graduating Brian went on to record and perform with Sass Jordon, Whitesnake, Foreigner, Slash's Snakepit, Billy Idol, and front his own project BALL, in which he sang played and recorded every instrument on the album. He has written music for television and film, and has been a rotating member of the Dead Dasies as well as running the famous “Bonzo Bash” shows at NAMM. Tichy became a speed bag enthusiast while on tour with Foreigner and quickly got with some of the best speed baggers around to learn and increase his own skills. During the 2009–10 tour with Foreigner, Tichy hung several speed bag wall units inside the bands equipment truck and created the infamous "Speed Bag Truck.” Let's listen in. Enjoy!

His projects include the brand new Silverthorne and past project with Sass Jordan, S.U.N. Besides his work as a musician, he also took on the role of organizing Bonzo Bash.

This event has brought quite a buzz along with it over the years where some famous drummers, including one of Tichy’s biggest influences, Peter Criss, came out to partake in the fun. Brian has also appeared on Drumeo where he breaks down some of the most famous Bonham grooves, tasty triplet licks for rock drumming and more!
