360 - Quinton "Q" Robinson: Touring with "Ain't Too Proud," Making a Career Transition into Musical Theatre, A Different Kind of Musical Fulfillment

Over the last decade plus, Quinton "Q" Robinson developed a busy and sustainable career drumming with Gospel and R&B acts such as Avery Sunshine, Peebo Bryson, and Anthony David, and recording in his home studio. But he got interested in musical theatre and started spending time in New York meeting Broadway drummers, musical directors, and contractors, and playing readings and off-Broadway productions. He also got in with the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta played a litany of shows there. That legwork has culminated in Q landing the drum chair for the touring production of "Ain't Too Proud," the Tony-winning Temptations musical. In this episode, Q talks about: The process of getting on the radar of decision makers in the musical theatre world His experience at The Alliance Theatre in Atlanta How he got on Clayton Craddock's radar, and how Clayton came to recommend him for "Ain't Too Proud" The intricacies of the show The qualities required of a musical theatre drummer His goals for the new studio he's about to build
