J-Zone Interviews Average White Band/Tom Petty/Session Drummer Steve Ferrone for Red Bull Music Academy

September 6, 2016

021711-Ferrone-B&W

My latest Give The Drummer Some installment at RBMA is with the steady and prolific Steve Ferrone. From Average White Band; to Brian Auger; to Tom Petty; to Eric Clapton; to Roberta Flack – he talks drumming for them all. We also discuss his beginnings in England and avoiding some of the pitfalls of the music business. READ IT HERE! Enjoy.

With the numerous reinventions I’ve gone through since the late ‘90s - hip-hop producer/artist; to DJ/writer/author and eventually, drummer - trying to cram it all on one website was a mess. My pivot to drumming in 2011 was entirely unplanned and my prior website was designed to promote a book. Finding more focus and abandoning being a jack-of-a-zillion trades over the last decade, I decided to repurpose my site as HQ for my work and path as a drummer... and start going by my actual name. Big steps. Ha! Thanks for tuning in.
