Medeski, Martin and Wood’s Billy Martin - Modern Drummer Magazine

Medeski, Martin and Wood’s Billy Martin

We recently visited MMW co-founder Billy Martin at his home studio, which is a custom-built shed on the drummer’s New Jersey property that he uses to teach, compose, practice, and conduct workshops. The simple, beautiful, four-piece drumkit that lives in the space is a special one that was built for Martin several years ago by the late, great craftsman Johnny Craviotto. Billy outfits the kit with a sparse cymbal selection comprising one small crash/ride and a set of hi-hats.
