| 6/9/26 |  Are Self-Taught Drummers Missing Out? Plus Keith Carlock, Bad Bunny and Pollner Drums | The Back Beat #2 | You can practise on your own for ten years and just get really good at doing it wrong. This week I'm asking whether learning drums alone is quietly holding you back. This week on The Back Beat: a Bad Bunny record that genuinely surprised me, Keith Carlock's vocabulary with the Wayne Krantz trio, and a drum carved from a single log. 00:00 - What's on this week 00:21 - Heavy Rotation: Bad Bunny, Debí Tirar Más Fotos 03:04 - Drummer Spotlight: Keith Carlock with the Wayne Krantz trio... | 10m 01s | ||||||

| 5/26/26 |  Ari Hoenig (NYU & Punk Bop) Interview: Music as Language, Solo Drumming, & Teaching Beyond the Page | We sat down with Ari for a remote conversation that came about after Bill Bruford name-dropped him in an earlier Drum Dog interview. What followed was a properly philosophical chat about music as a communication tool, how to practice creativity rather than chops, and why learning an instrument and learning music are two completely different things. Ari opens up about his solo drumming approach, the three sources of inspiration that shape every note he plays, and why he hasn't sat down to pra... | 56m 33s | ||||||

Entirely self-taught, Ra opens up about learning by ear, why she'll only take gigs she feels a genuine connection to, the role social media has played in every opportunity she's had, and how a chemical engineering degree shaped the way she thinks about music as a career. Whether you're a self-taught drum... | 26m 15s | ||||||
| 5/12/26 |  Jason Bowld (Bullet for My Valentine) Interview: Joining the Band, Touring Life, & Studio Craft | We sat down with Jason at the Europe Drum Show 2026 to dig into 11 years behind the kit with Bullet for My Valentine, the reality of touring at that scale, and the lessons he's picked up writing and recording across eight albums. From honouring a song versus putting his own stamp on it, to the mindset shift of going full-time, to the underrated skills he thinks every drummer should be working on, Jason breaks down the craft side of being a working metal drummer with refreshing honesty.

| 5/5/26 |  Vicky O'Neon (Anastacia) Interview: Hybrid Drumming, Touring, & Triggers | We sat down with Vicky after her masterclass at UK Drum Show to dive into her incredible hybrid setup, touring life, and how drummers can start incorporating electronic and percussive elements into their kit. From live looping to trigger-based percussion, Vicky breaks down how she blends acoustic and electronic drumming into a powerful, creative setup - and shares practical advice for drummers who want to get started without feeling overwhelmed.
