Recorded material has always been particularly meaningful to me. When a drummer selects your drum for a record, that is one of the highest compliments that can be paid to a drum maker. Lynyrd Skynyrd legend Artimus Pyle has used his Beier 1.5 Steel–6.5 x 14 for many years as his go-to main for live performance, and in the studio. He recently chose that drum yet again for several records which I am thrilled about. I was introduced to him by my buddy, and one of the greatest Southern Rock drummers of all-time-Monte Yoho. He is one of the founding members of one of the greatest Southern Rock bands of all time…The Outlaws.
Dolly Parton’s Rockstar was released recently to critical acclaim. Artimus did his always masterful job on Freebird, and I was so over the top to hear about this. Anthems-Honoring The Music Of Lynyrd Skynyrd, will be released this February. It is a star-studded record with numerous Musical guests, and no doubt it will be incredible.
Thank You Again Artimus Pyle for everything over the years. Your work continues, and it is as amazing as it has always been. The Artimus Pyle Band is one of the best bands on the road, and is an unbelievable live experience. To have your work recorded, makes it permanent. Hope to see you soon…..And Thank You Again Monte Yoho…..
