In this episode Working Drummer hosts Zack Albetta and Matthew Crouse have a unique opportunity to join forces with Nick Ruffini from Drummer’s Resource to have a “host-full” conversation. We take a break from our normal interviews and spend some time to talk about ourselves and some major transitions all three of us are going through.
In this podcast, Nick, Zack and Matt talk about:
Adapting to major life changes and transitions
Changing the Narrative of what its like to be a working musician
Finding non-playing gigs in the music business
“Shedding the ego related badge of only playing for a living’”
Nick Ruffini’s anticipated transition to San Francisco
Zack Albetta’s transition to Atlanta after a year
Matt’s transition from life as a touring drummer to finding work closer to home in Nashville
Being selective about work
The pitfalls of comparing ourselves with other people
