049 – Paul Griffith: Being a Stylist, Managing Expectations, Dealing with Insecurities

Paul Griffith is a freelance drummer and writer based in Nashville, TN. As a musician, his unique, left-of-center style (the result of a New Orleans upbringing) has made him a first call for artists looking to add a laid back groove to their records and live performances. Combining the visceral, dance-oriented feel of New Orleans legends like Joseph “Zigaboo” Modeliste and Earl Palmer with the meticulous experimentation of session great Jim Keltner, Paul has found a home among some of the world’s most creative singer-songwriters, including Sheryl Crow, k. d. Lang, John Prine, Todd Snider, Cerys Mathews (Catatonia), Greg Brown and Jack Ingram. He has been recognized as “Best Hired Hand” by Nashville Scene magazine and was nominated for a Nashville Music Award in the drummer/percussionist category. In this podcast Paul talks about: Being a “Stylist” Caring about the gig but not worrying about it Dealing with your insecurities Dealing with peeks and valleys in the music business Managing expectations and diversifying Asking what the gig pays The right conditions for taking a gig Click here for pictures
