Poppy drummer Ralph Alexander talks about the unique barn-style house his mother built where he has his drums set up, the unfortunate tour that didn’t happen with Poppy, Deftones & Gojira, the process of recording drums for the Poppy record “Flux” at Sunset Sound Studios (and the bizarre connection to Prince), the inescapable John Bonham influence, early drum teachers and the series of competitions he went through that landed him a scholarship to the Musicians Institute, doing the work to be at your best when the time comes and not letting the pressure of others affect your playing, & much more!
