As much as I love doing these drum videos all by myself, I do miss playing in a band and the fun of collaborating with mates to work on something together. I have also realised that after all these years of touring and doing music stuff I have gotten to know some pretty amazingly talented people. So here is the first video in the ‘Mates Series’, where I get a bunch of different mates from different bands in to work on a track and mess around with it for a bit of fun. First up is a double time cover of the Ramones classic ‘Blitzkrieg Bop’ featuring:
Guitar / Vocals: Ray Carlisle (Teenage Bottlerocket)
Vocals: Kody Templeman (Teenage Bottlerocket / The Lillingtons)
Bass / Backing Vox: Craig Hughes (Batfoot!)
Guitar: Milo Carlisle (Ray’s Son)
