Kevin (Edgewise – drums)

SPB: How old were you when you first learned a music instrument?

Kevin: I was eleven when I officially started playing drums. In my mind, I had started years earlier. My oldest brother had a drumkit that he refused to let me play. I snuck a few hits in when I could, but it wasn't enough to satisfy my desire to crush the kit. Revenge can be a hell of a motivator. When I got the chance, I started playing drums, determined to make a mockery out of my brother's drumming abilities. I suppose I should be grateful to him for inspiring me.
