Soundcheck- Glen Sobel Drum Clinic- Jennifer Batten “The Swarm”

www.myspace.com Glen Sobel (Sixx AM, Impellitteri, Paul Gilbert) at soundcheck for a drum clinic in Osaka @ Osaka School of Music playing “The Swarm” off of Jennifer Batten’s Tribal Rage. The record featuring Jennifer Batten (Michael Jackson’s gtr player), Ricky Wolking (The Nixons, Macalpine) on bass and Glen on drums. Here’s part of his bio. Glen Sobel has played in a variety of genres including rock, hip hop, pop, metal, punk, and fusion. Just when somebody may have this drummer all figured out, he’ll play on a gig that will completely catch them off guard. “To continually work in the music business you have to be able to play and appreciate a wide variety of styles.” It’s this type of dedication and work ethic that has kept Glen in the circle of in demand drummers in Los Angles. In 2007 alone he played, toured, and/or recorded with gigs ranging from hard rock (SIXX AM featuring Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue), pop/r&b (tour with ELLIOTT YAMIN- American Idol finalist who had one of the biggest hits of ’07 ), instrumental fusion (Glen played on guitar great PAUL GILBERT’s new DVD), drum clinic instruction (JAPAN CLINIC TOUR) to studio TV work (Glen plays drums on the new version of the MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL theme on ESPN). Does this guy ever rest ?!
