We are shedding a spotlight on Hudson Valley drummer and touring drum technician Jesse Walsh. Jesse and I talk about our shared experience going to the same elementary and middle school to the incredible 10 year career he has created working for a multitude of famous touring bands, spanning across 6 out of the 7 continents! And of course, Jesse recounts the events that led him to make his impromptu stage debut with Young the Giant.

Besides playing onstage with Young the Giant, some of the notable artists that Jesse has worked with as a drum tech include Against the Current, Lord Huron, Spirit Box, Tate McRae and more! Touring has taken Jesse all over the world. The only continent he has not been to yet is Antarctica. Anyone looking to have a music festival out in the snow? Jesse needs to knock this off his bucket list!
