TECH TALK Drum geek Chic
How have the last 18 months been?
If I had to use one word to sum it up, it would be ‘challenging’. My business suffered financially as did a lot of others, but my friends in the industry all tried to stay as positive as they could. I did enjoy the time at home – extended time with the family and my young daughter were priceless moments that I won’t forget.
Are you starting to see light at the end of the pandemic tunnel?
Yes, things are coming back slowly. The industry is very eager to get started under the correct and safe protocols. I have been busy with various artists in studio sessions and kit maintenance etc.
What did you miss most and are you excited to get back out again?
I have missed the travel, the people, the shows and the life experiences. It was a huge lifestyle change for me and most touring professionals, going from being away 150+ days a year to spending 18 months in one place. Day-esque.
