The Best Seat in the House
Currently in production, The Best Seat in the House is an original documentary film project about music - from the perspective of the drummer. As I embark on my lifelong dream to learn to play the drums, the film chronicles my music journey and conversations with some of the world’s greatest musicians. We discuss what it means to support a song while uncovering the mystery behind this often misunderstood instrument.
