Скачать или смотреть Simon Hanson: Inside Drumming & Creativity with Squeeze!

In this episode of The Hang, Scott Saldinger sits down with Simon Hanson — longtime drummer of Squeeze — to explore creativity, reinvention, and life inside one of Britain’s most beloved bands.
Simon shares how a childhood dream of becoming a pilot ended because of colorblindness, ultimately steering him toward the drum kit and a lifelong career in music. From wedding gigs and grinding it out in London to joining Glenn Tilbrook and stepping into Squeeze’s iconic catalog — including classics like “Tempted” and “Black Coffee in Bed” — Simon reflects on the persistence it takes to build a lasting career in music.

Beyond drumming, Simon reveals his evolution into filmmaking and visual storytelling. What began with a simple flip camera on tour became a full creative outlet. Today, he creates experimental drum-driven films using just an iPhone and laptop, blending rhythm, editing, and narrative into a single art form. He discusses how platforms like YouTube have democratized creativity — while also introducing new challenges in an algorithm-driven world.

If you’re a Squeeze fan, a drummer, or a creative navigating today’s music industry, this episode offers insight into staying inspired, adaptable, and authentic across decades.
