Nate Morton. If you're a drummer, you know the name. If you're not a drummer, you've most certainly heard his playing at some point.  He's the drummer of ALL the shows.  Back in the day it was Rock Star INXS and Rock Star: Supernova.  Most recently, it's The Voice.  So, when he called out to his over 5K Facebook fan base for anyone interested in a lesson, I reached out. And man, I feel like I've known this guy forever. We talked for over two hours about drums, life...farts (not kidding LOL).  Plus here's a fun fact, we both studied with Grant Menefee who's been on the podcast (listen to that episode here).   Like I said, we talked for over two hours so, I'm breaking this episode into two parts.   Please enjoy the first part of my conversation with Nate Morton! 
It's never too late to be what you might have been.
- Nate Morton 
​In this episode Nate talks about:
  • what Nate ate for breakfast
  • balancing life and drums
  • NAMM. What is it?
  • Practice drums. Practice gratitude
  • Gratitude
  • Navigating and finding your own path
  • does Nate make mistakes on The Voice?
  • how to own your mistakes

Hey Brandon. I've just been in the fortunate position to interview a bunch of guys. I'll probably release it on a slow week but I promise to release it. I have interviews with Dennis Chambers, AJ Hall, Steve Smith and a bunch more coming up so stay tuned :). Thanks for listening.
