Count Us In
The Count Us In Podcast was born from 3 working drummers meeting at a Drum Camp, and after spending countless hours discussing their struggles and successes with this wonderful instrument, they decided to open the conversation to the wider drumming community. Matt Lacey, Jamie Joiner and Harry Surman are talking about the drumming journey, whilst letting the listener into their practice schedules, gigging preparations and drumming goals. This podcast is from working drummers, for working drummers! Join the conversation and get in touch on Instagram: @countusinpodcast
