202 – Bob Knight Part II: Building a Live Resume, What Your IG Feed Tells Employers, TV Gigs

Bob Knight was our guest on episode 165 and was so informative and entertaining, we had to go back for more. Bob lives in London where he commands somewhat of a dual career, both as an in-demand drummer and a music agent or “fixer,” matching musicians with bands or artists who need backing. He graduated from the jazz program at the prestigious Royal Academy of Music in London and has gone on to work with some of the biggest names in pop music including Sting, Cee-Lo Green, Charlotte Church, and Jennifer Hudson. His company, BEK Music, has provided musicians for a huge variety of acts from Andrea Bocelli to Eminem. In this episode, Bob talks about: * Custom-building a new practice/rehearsal studio * Being a session drummer week in, week out vs. casting yourself that way on social media * The results of a few months of intensified practicing * Being more committed, confident, and consistent in his timekeeping, and the positive response it’s gotten * The Yamaha EAD10 * Using social media to shine a light on others, and how social media factors into his hiring decisions * “Not playing” with Sting, the other artists he’s done sideline TV gigs with, and the prep involved with that kind of gig * His most recent TV gig as drummer and M.D. on Celebrity Game Night * Not taking himself seriously while taking what he does seriously * The strategy in turning down certain gigs, even when you’re available * His thoughts on the ”tribute” trend This episode is sponsored by Motion Pro Drum Thrones
