In today's episode of the podcast I speak with Grammy Award Winning Drummer/Educator and Author - Billy Ward.
Billy is a highly accomplished musician/drummer based out of New York City and has recorded and toured with some of the biggest names to ever grace the music industry including - B.B King, Carly Simon, Ace Frehley, Richard Marx, The Knack, Yoko Ono, Joan Osborne, Rick Springfield, Jimmy Webb and Robbie Robertson and Bill Champlin, to name just a few.
In addition, he has recorded on tons of soundtracks and is highly regarded as both an author - with published titles like his 'Inside Out' book as well as his educational DVD's - 'Inside My Head' and 'Big Time'.
Billy was also responsible for teaching Tom Everett Scott's character Guy Patterson how to both, play and perform as a drummer in the Tom Hanks smash hit movie - 'That Thing You Do'.
