Marlon J Williams (Drummer On The Move, Eden's Fill)

Feddun Interviews Tallahassee drummer Marlon J. Williams (Drummer on the Move), discussing early influences like Michael Jackson and Patti LaBelle, his musical family, church drumming roots, and leaving basketball due to losing passion and disliking the business/politics. Marlon recounts winning the Guitar Center Drum Off, joining the Tallahassee rock band Eden's Fill, and reflects on the local scene and major-label impacts (No Address, Socialburn, Standstill, Presence). He explains how “Drummer on the Move” began about 12 years ago by practicing outdoors, growing via Facebook and especially Instagram, and focuses on authenticity (Acoustic Thursdays), street performance/busking intuition, and memorable community interactions. He demos a slap box (cajón-style instrument), discusses going full-time after working security at Bond Elementary, and shares a personal turning point after divorce—quitting heavy drinking/smoking and channeling energy into drumming and working out. He says he plans to release easy-listening instrumental music and collaborations while encouraging listeners to be themselves.https://www.instagram.com/drummer_on_the_move/?hl=enhttps://www.wctv.tv/content/news/Drummer-On-The-Move-Marvin-Williams-Story-455721583.htmlhttps://musiclocal.org/performers/drummer-on-the-movehttps://www.facebook.com/DrummerOnTheMove/Theme Song by Sloan Brothers : http://open.spotify.com/artist/1Z0YyvTetovciEDRoRNudBNew Album By Sloan Brothers: https://sloanbrothers.bandcamp.com/album/love-other-diagnosesTitle inspired by Lee Bains III: https://www.thegloryfires.com/https://www.patreon.com/Feddun
