Dan Flint on YMAS, Drumming Challenges & What's Next

#drums #drumming #drummer #danflint #youmeatsix Join Ollie Winiberg from @DrummersReview as he sits down with Dan Flint, drummer for You Me at Six. We dive into why it’s not about being the 'best drummer', the band’s early Myspace era and how connecting with fans helped shape their rise. We also talk about how Dan’s drumming has evolved over the years, and why “Song of the Swarm” is far more difficult than people realise. Dan shares why You Me at Six were able to end their career so gracefully and uniquely, whether this is truly the end or if there’s more still to come... Dan explains the importance of side projects alongside great advice for aspiring drummers. Lastly, we wrap up with a hint that we’re not finished with You Me at Six. ---------------------------------------------------- 00:16 - Intro 01:15 - "It's not about being the best". 03:07 - The MySpace scene & the importance of connecting with fans 05:30 - How Dan's drumming was shaped over the years 08:14 - How 'The Swarm' deceptively difficult 09:49 - Why YMAS had such a graceful (and rare) ending 13:30 - Is it the end of YMAS or is there more to come? 16:15 - The importance of side projects 19:00 - Advice for aspiring drummers 20:13 - We're not finished with YMAS... ---------------------------------------------------- Be sure to subscribe to our channel: @DrummersReview and click on the bell icon to be notified every time we launch a new interview with your favourite artist or completely impartial, HD video review!
