Drumma Boy

I hadn’t either until he told me about them. I mean, I still don’t know too too much about them….they’re a Progressive Rock group (named the best in that lane by Rolling Stone this year!) but since I’m more into R&B and such, than rock…I missed that memo.
Anyhooo….my boy is an insane drummer who I met on the Keyshia Cole tour during her first album heyday. He was wild then, so when moved on to play for Wicked Wisdom (Jada Pinkett-Smith’s band) and then to The Mars Volta, I got it immediately. Long story short, I walked up to Tabernacle as people were walking out. Boooo! I missed the show. What a suck-arse friend! To make up for it, here’s a youtube of Thomas doing a drum solo at another of their shows. Give it up….dude’s a monster.
(lol…at the lead singer getting his James Brown on!)
