Drum It With Brummet

A Word From The Brummets ©  Brummet Media Group A few years ago I was a guest on  the  Small Talk YouTube Channel  &  I was inspired to listen to it again recently & I thought this particular section would be of interest to you.  If you would like to access the full interview on  Small Talk YouTube Channel  click the link below:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAtUZq91SfE “   The arts are a therapy - I mean music and poetry and writing ...they all have this incredible power to connect with people. As artists we have this incredible power to help others understand that they're not so alone that the world is not so dark and dangerous that there is positive and helpful – there’s good things out there that they can embrace – they just need to be made aware of, or reminded of, that fact.

  How To Be An Organized Drummer - Part 2 * Check out Part 1 of this discussion that was published on December 8th 2025. Having been a professional musician for over 40 years I have developed a system to prepare my gear for any type performance I am called upon to play.  As a drummer and also as a percussionist I have a lot of parts and pieces to pack up, transport and set up, whether it is the drums themselves or the hardware that holds them in place.

That list is first written out then I take a picture of it with my phone so when packing up at my storage space I know exactly what to bring with no risk of leaving behind an important item - or ...
