Ryan Smith (The Outlaw Orchestra) #36

Thanks for checking out episode 36 of Drum For The Song podcast featuring Ryan Smith from English western/country/rock band The Outlaw Orchestra who were chosen as a support act for my band Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons for a few shows in November 2021.In this episode, Ryan talks about his history as a drummer, the story of The Outlaw Orchestra so far and he also tells a very sad story about losing both of his parents which has led him to dealing with depression and how music and drumming often acts as some sort of therapy for it. He also goes into detail about the makes and models of his drum equipment and is very enthusiastic about why he made particular choices with his gear and why more volume isn't always better. Ryan is proudly endorsed by Q Drums, Diril Cymbals, The London Drumstick Company, Code Drum Heads and Cympad.Find out more about The Outlaw Orchestra - https://www.theoutlaworchestra.com/I hope you enjoy this free episode, please subscribe to the podcast via your podcast provider & YouTube, like and review where you can and share with anyone else who might be interested.If you've enjoyed any of my episodes, please consider joining my Patreon community via Patreon at http://www.patreon.com/drumforthesong/ for access to exclusive content, group video calls, competitions, giveaways plus 20% discount at http://www.motorhead-beer.comI'd like to give a special thanks to my top-tier 'Groove Master' Patrons for their extended support.
