Creating tension and release through the solo section…it’s all about that steady back-beat

Working overtime with a heavily layered groove… multiple ghost notes on the snare, left-foot high-hat on the +’s (through the fills also), syncopated bass drum pattern and (syncopated) right hand on the ride and Bell (two colours).

Helps to have a killer band to kick along with Jamie Harrison laying down a beautifully swung bass line and Anthony Thyer doing the top end.

With John Schumann at the The Gov last year.
