Steve Ferrone: The Legendary Drummer Behind Tom Petty, Average White Band, Eric Clapton, Duran Duran Episode 89: Steve Ferrone. A nearly 3 hour deep dive with one of the greatest groove drummers of all time, Steve Ferrone. He joined Average White Band after the passing of their original drummer and went on to create “School Boy Crush,” one of the most sampled grooves in hip-hop history. From there, he played with Duran Duran, Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Johnny Cash, and Michael Jackson, before becoming the drummer for Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers for the next two plus decades, all the way up until Tom's unfortunate passing. In this episode, Steve opens up about his journey from Brighton to the biggest stages in the world, his time in the studio with legends like Tom Petty and Rick Rubin, and the philosophy behind his timeless feel and sound. He also shares stories from recording Unplugged with Eric Clapton, Unchained with Johnny Cash, and why groove always comes first. We talk about the evolution of technology in music, including a hilarious story about click track and Jeff Porcaro, and his personal relationships with George, Tom, Eric and more. Steve is a guy that everyone just wants around. His work contributed to GRAMMY winning albums with Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Wildflowers, Eric Clapton's Unplugged, Johnny Cash's Unchained, and Céline Dion's Falling Into You. He's also currently the host of The New Guy on SiriusXM. I hope you enjoy my conversation with the legend, Steve Ferrone! Subscribe for more conversations with the world's greatest musicians.

Drummer, composer and bandleader Nate Smith joins me on the show this week. While many people have come to know of Nate's work through his recent collaborations with Vulfpeck, Brittany Howard, and as a member of the Fearless Flyers, Nate has been playing, touring and honing his craft for decades. His early experience with legendary jazz vocalist Betty Carter led to him being a full-time member of Dave Holland's group for many years, and carved out a reputation as one of New York's great up and coming jazz drummers. Nate's wide range of skills and musical tastes led him to start his own group, Kinfolk, which has recorded 2 spectacular albums. A somewhat random invite led him to become a member of The Fearless Flyers, which exploded on youtube, and has paved the way for Nate's own set of solo and collaborative videos that are highly original, exciting, and musical. His collaborations with musicians like Charlie Hunter, Cory Wong, Victor Wooten, Carrtoons, and Lionel Loueke are well documented on both album and youtube videos. Nate's latest project is under his own name, entitled “Live-Action” and is an incredible collection of compositions, improvisations and collaborations with many of his musical partners. Nate will be touring quite a bit over the next while with his band, so be sure to catch them when you can!You can get all the latest info on Nate and all his projects, records and amazing set of videos at natesmithdrums.comEnjoy my conversation with Nate Smith!This season is brought to you by our main sponsors Larivée Guitars, Audeze, Izotope, FabFilter, and Chase Bliss.

Legendary Drummer Jason Bonham
Stewart Copeland's drumming helped define a generation. As one third of The Police, he played at some of the biggest venues not only in New Zealand, but in the world. He went on to work extensively in composing for film and TV. And now, 18 years since his last visit to New Zealand, Copeland is returning for a very special spoken word tour - ‘Have I Said Too Much? The Police, Hollywood, And Other Adventures'. He told Newstalk ZB's Jack Tame this type of show is a bit more of an intellectual exercise than playing the drums. “Actually having to form sentences and so on, is a little more challenging,” Copeland said. “Fortunately in my 70-something years, I've had a couple of adventures, which are fun to talk about.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thomas liefert den aktuellen Drummer of the Week, und in der Flimmerecke gibt's wie immer reichlich Stoff zum Schauen, Staunen und Diskutieren.Reisen, Musik, Filme, Chaos und jede Menge Anekdoten – eine randvolle Episode!

Five albums in six years. 75 million records sold. Then, just like that, The Police walked away leaving us with songs everyone still knows: "Message in a Bottle," "Don't Stand So Close to Me," "Every Breath You Take." You know there are plenty of stories to tell and drummer and founding member of The Police Stewart Copeland is ready to tell them. Dubbed the "accidental archivist," he spent the years of the rise of The Police jotting down the secrets and surprises of the trio he formed with Sting and Andy Summers. Now, after 18 years away, he's coming back to New Zealand with a spoken world tour called Have I Said Too Much? It's an evening that dives into the wild ride of rock superstardom, the creative sparks and disasters fans never knew about, and the twists that took Copeland from punk-reggae anthems to orchestras and operas. The tour lands here in January. Stewart Copeland spoke to Jesse.

Budgie (born Peter Edward Clarke) is an English drummer recognized for his work with Siouxsie and the Banshees (1979–1996) and the percussion-driven project The Creatures (1981–2004). He lost his mother at age 12, and that early loss becomes a central theme in The Absence: Memoirs of a Banshee Drummer, where he also writes candidly about his marriage with Siouxsie Sioux, struggles with alcohol, and the power dynamics in both his personal and musical life. His drumming is praised for being offbeat, tom-tom-intensive, and for bringing melodic and rhythmic invention rather than just keeping time.

They're preformatted notes, where I just change the image and the name. For giggles, I looked back at my very first blog post, July 31, 2012. It was a paragraph, a letter of sorts, short and simple, Improv and Best Health. It's taking me longer to produce each episode. So, no more frequently than once a month. So, why not a letter, short and sweet, from time to time? Let's start with trust. A letter feels more trustworthy than an email or a tweet. It's signed; a person who writes a letter really wants to communicate and thinks about what they're saying. So, perhaps, not a troll, more trustworthy. I always open letters. My immediate, momentary, default reaction to almost anything is trust. My kids say I'm gullible. My next instant reaction is skepticism. I think about what's not true about whatever. ‘AI is the solution to everything.' What do you mean, everything? What is AI anyway? Like that. I've been married for 50 years because at our core, my wife and I trust each other. We disagree, we misunderstand, we anger, I sulk. Yet we trust. On the other hand, I make stuff up. I misremember, create a story, and if it serves my purposes, stick with it or modify it as needed. My wife and grandkids are my fact-checkers. Still, we trust each other. In my personal life, trust isn't an on-or-off switch, all or nothing. Well, not usually. It's a matter of degree; it's about something. I trust that I can count on you to be there for me, unless you can't. I trust that you'll return my call, unless you're hurt, don't feel like it, or missed it. Distrust sucks energy; be more careful with my words, self-censor, close my heart and mind. I don't expect to trust everybody or everything. When I do trust, it's priceless. Thanks for listening, I'll be back.

The comedian Fred Armisen has a thing for sound. He's a former punk musician and a master of accents, and he is now releasing a new album of sound effects. “I was lamenting that there aren't sound-effects albums in our lives as much,” he tells Michael Schulman. “I feel like they just used to exist more or they were more present. . . . And instead of just, you know, taking out my phone and just recording stuff, I wanted to treat it properly. Like, let me go to a recording studio and really do it. Let me try to mimic some things that I've heard before.” The result, “100 Sound Effects,” comes out this month on the venerable indie label Drag City. The track titles are themselves punch lines: “Guitar Tuned but Still Somehow Out of Tune,” “Supportive Booing at a Speech,” “Obligatory Applause at a Speech,” and “Terrified Audience at an Authoritarian Nation Official Event.” Talking about the importance of paying attention to the auditory world, Armisen and Schulman went out to record some classic sounds of New York City—and what they couldn't find they faked.This segment was produced with assistance from John DeLore.

Baxie talks to legendary drummer Bruce Smith. Since 1979, Bruce has played with the insanely influential post-punk band The Pop Group, Public Image Ltd. with John Lydon, and The Slits. He's also played with Terrance Trent Darby, The The, and Bjork as well! Bruce is currently involved with Ashes and Diamonds—the incredible Super Group with Daniel Ash from Bauhaus, Tones on Tail, and Love and Rockets, and Sade's bass player Paul Denman. After seven years together and loads of interruptions and restarts, their debut album “Ashes and Diamonds and Forever” is finally getting its long overdue release (10/31/25). The final result is a record that Bruce calls “the most satisfying” of his career! Just brilliant!

Hey guys—so I've been deep into working on the second book, which has me going back through a bunch of the older conversations. One that really stood out again was with Steve Goold. If you don't know, Steve is actually the Steve of Steve's Donut. He's also played with Sara Bareilles, Owl City, Mat Kearney, and Scary Pockets, to name a few. But more than the resume, I was reminded how insightful he is. There's this part where he talks about there being no neutral notes—like, every note carries weight, it's never just filler. That idea has been rattling around in my head ever since I revisited the chat. Steve just put out his first release under his own name, a live recording called Solo Improvisations On Drumset, and you can watch the whole thing on YouTube HERE. STEVE'S BIG FAT FIVE: - Artist – Pearl Jam Album – Vs. Release Year – 1993 Key Track – “Go” Drummer – Dave Abbruzzese - Artist – Owsley Album – Owsley Release Year – 1999 Key Track – “Oh No the Radio” Drummer – Chris McHugh - Artist – Jeff Buckley Album – Grace Release Year – 1994 Key Track – “Mojo Pin” Drummer – Matt Johnson - Artist – Happy Apple Album – Body Popping – Moon Walking – Top Rocking Release Year – 2000 Key Track – “Where Does a Stranger Go on Christmas Eve?” Drummer – Dave King - Artist – Dogs of Peace Album – Speak Release Year – 1996 Key Track – “The Truth” Drummer – John Hammond - Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!

This Drum Panel episode picks up where we left off with Brendan Buckley (Shakira, Morrissey, Perry Farrell) and Gunnar Olsen (Puscifer, Mother Feather). If you missed Part 1, you'll still follow along just fine—but it's worth a listen. We dive right in with drummer nightmares before moving into bigger conversations about finding your own sound, overcoming roadblocks, and balancing identity as both artist and “brand.” Inside this episode: Drummer nightmares on stage – including Brendan's Shakira story that started as a trio Bad advice worth ignoring – why “you need to play everything” isn't always the path Finding your own voice – doubling down on what makes you unique instead of being a jack of all trades Hi-hat obsession – tone, touch, and why small changes shift the whole vibe Roadblocks and breakthroughs – Gunnar's kick pedal “yips” and Brendan's double bass practice insights Kit setups and identity – how your drum layout shapes your playing more than you think Brand vs. authenticity – do drummers really need to market themselves, or is being great enough? ——— Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!
Twitter/X Space 9 August 2025In this episode, I explore the intersection of personal growth and atheism, examining how non-believers navigate moral frameworks and the balance between immediate pleasures and long-term commitments. Sharing personal anecdotes, I discuss the impact of childhood experiences on adult choices and the complexities of altruism without religious context. The conversation also challenges traditional gender roles in relationships, inviting listener perspectives on partnership dynamics. Ultimately, I encourage introspection about our beliefs and the societal narratives shaping them, highlighting the importance of reason in our understanding of truth and personal fulfillment.FOLLOW ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxGET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
