Another great interview. For 7 days in a row now I have woke up, got a cup of coffee and listened to a Nate interview or lesson. This one I started out scratching my head. Why is this guy talking in 3rd person? It was still entertaining. Through it all he had great things to say, and when TaRon showed up he had alot of great things to say, especially at the very end. I wasn't sure who he was and then saw he played with Cory Henry. I saw Cory with Snarky Puppy and anyone he puts in his drum chair is probably prolific. So now I will get my Funk Apostles cd out and listen to him deep. TaRon, I am going to be 63 this. When you said at the end "Take your time", that really resonated with me. Thank you!
This is the first Lockett interview I’ve ever watched and that dude is immediately evident as an incredible human. Nate thank you so much for putting this together, Great questions and you both knocked it out of the park with this.
I just spent a good part of the day listening to TaRon. Beautiful musical drummer. Check out the concert with Cory at Apogee Studios. Just wow!
Some serious wisdom shared here. What an impressive human being. Fabulous interview, well done.
appreciate these interviews - the musicians ur talkin to are great and all have this one thing in common -confidence. as someone who has been battling that my whole life, its coo to hear and see ppl flowing in their confidence. 🤞
TaRon tweakin and I love it
This was an amazing interview!
Shed Fela Kuti - Zombie. Noted!
He's funny. I can see how Prince was comfortable working with him.
The "other" persona feature was a nice kickoff for the video--to me.
'Zombie' by Fela Kuti. Just checked that out for nearly 5 minutes. The hi-hat, and other parts of the drum sing around one another. But the pulse doesn't feel so manipulated.
I wonder what he means on the last bit about "everyone playing it wrong." Maybe there was a lot of interpretations of it that wasn't accurate...? Also surprised I didn't hear about this song considering how many drummers I studied with. Sounds cool. I mean it's Fela, right?

Epic interview
'm 20 mins in and am loving it so far.
I skipped to the last half but that was some good advice i needed to hear. idk how you set these interviews up but if you get a chance more LA ppl would be great. I've been watching Gene Coye play in LA for a few years and I'd really love you guys have a conversation. his solos always blow my mind
Get gene on the pod!
