The Drum Shed Podcast
Drum Chat from an amateur’s perspective about gear gigs, education, drumming influences, drum shows, and the drumming community in 2025.
We also interview "Drummy People" from all over. This includes, Educators, Players of all areas of drumming from beginners to professional artists. We will also speak to industry people, drum builders and shop owners.
Hosted by Matt F.
Matt (London) started playing in the 80's and was in a couple of bands that played many gigs in London and the UK as well as recorded in a few studios but never really "made it" Now he is totally obsessed with Drums, music and music gear and the industry. Loyal to the Meinl Brand and a member of the Mike Johnston "Mikes Lessons" Drum Education website and "Family"
We attend the UK Drum Show and other events we can get to around the UK
Some episodes will just be us nattering on about drum stuff, and some will involve guest hosts or guest interviewees.
