Percussion Discussion - Episode 92 - Math Priest
Joining me for todays conversation is Math Priest.
Math is a founder member, song writer and drummer for UK Pop/Rock band Dodgy producing such incredible songs as Good Enough, Staying out for the summer and Grassman as well as many studio and live albums.
Aswell as playing for Dodgy, Math has also played fo the likes of The Lightening Seeds, The Electric Soft Parade, The yellow Moon Band and Ian McNabb in The Icicle Works plus many more.
Join us as we talk about Math's career from his early days with his first thrown together drum kit and how he is a completley self taught drummer and the problems this created onto searching for a vintage drum sound for an album and buying a used Gretsch Roundbadge Drum Kit from Steven White, through to playing the Pyramid stage at the mighty Glastonbury Festival!
We also talk about his drumming work with other bands such as the Lightening Seeds and The Icicle works.
Math is a really great chap, and a very funny guy to boot, this was such a fun experience to spend an hour in his company, Yes, there is some swearing and yes there is a section where Math gets a beer from the fridge and isnt wearing trousers! (it was a very warm day!) i dare you not to enjoy this!!
Math, thanks so much mate, it was a total pleasure, many thanks also to our mutual friend Chris Hawkins for connecting us!
Please rate & review if you are enjoying our conversations! Thanks
