  • Thank you!

    Thank you for starting these - the Gavin episode was epic! I learned a ton from that interview. Loved to hear what he really focused on - specifically the stuff about how to play with other musicians, time playing, feel, etc.! His exercises are also great, which I have been playing for a couple of years now!

    Much needed because it resonates deeply with me and I think we can learn a lot from these thoughts and ideas, wisdom and inspiration on our own ways of not just being an artist but even of being a human and trying yto maybe become an even better one.

    All the best to all of you out there listening. Sören

Becoming Gavin Harrison
Q: What role did experiments and gadgets play in your timing improvement, and what eventually outweighed gear in importance?
He details using tools like the Russian Dragon and Beat Bug but emphasizes that ideas and musical concepts, not gear, ultimately drive progress, with a shift toward relying on inner timing and musical ideas over external measurements.
Becoming Gavin Harrison
Q: When did you first decide to pursue music professionally, and how did that shape your early practice habits?
Gavin explains he decided at age six, driven by a belief in his own possibility, which framed his early years around intense, curiosity-driven exploration rather than sheer conformity to formal training.
