Скачать или смотреть Roman Roth - Percussion Discussion - Episode 78

Joining me today is the wonderful Swiss drummer Roman Roth.

For pretty much the last decade Roman has been playing for Mick Hucknall as a solo artist or for the mangnificent Simply Red.

Join Roman and myself as we chat about his career so far, from the beginning of his musical path which started out with the violin, how he switched to drumsaged 9 after hearing Art Blakey being played by his music loving father.

We talk about his incredible journey from studying drums at universtity in Zurich through to getting the Simply Red gig, and how the gig requires competence in so many diverse styles to get through the gig!

Roman really is all about the groove and the feel, he has some lovely organic drum sounds both live and on recordings, this is of course made easier by having some top quality equipment, we talk about Paiste Cymbals (also Swiss of course)and Gretsch Drums!

Roman, many thanks for giving up your time so generously. its much appreciated!

Special thanks to our mutual friend and top class UK touring/session drummer Steve Barney for putting us in touch!
