Where the backbeats meet the spirits. Episode #66. On this podcast, our guest is Adam Tevlin. He came from over 100 years of family drumming and was inspired by his uncle for him to take up the drums. Adam has been drumming for over 25+ years and recently launched a new drumming show on YouTube called "Learning to Drum!". It takes viewers from ground zero to beyond. Ideally for people who know nothing about the drums, self-taught drummers, and/or economically challenged drummers.
