Talented Friends

Matt Musty is Train’s new drummer, and I had the great fortune of hanging out entirely too much with him this summer.

Musty’s a rare musician - immediately upon meeting him, you realize you’re in the hands of a grown ass human being, that if everything goes to shit, if the freaking stage catches on fire, if Ted Nugent, bestride a sabertooth tiger, begins launching arrows at the singer’s keister, there’s zero percent chance the groove suffers.

And I reckon Matt out-fisticuffs the Nuge, though they’d both claim the contrary.

It was a treat hearing him speak so candidly about his journey through the music biz on the excellent Drummer’s Resource podcast.

Here’s the episode.
