David Phillips’ new book, From The Riser, A Drummer’s Perspective II is to feature over 120 drumming legends including Neil Pear (Rush), Lars Ulrich (Metallica), Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters), Joey Kramer (Aerosmith), Jay Weinberg (Slipknot), Travis Barker (Blink-182) Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe), Ian Paice (Deep Purple), Ginger Baker (Cream), Mike Mangini (Dream Theater), Chris CC Coma (Black Veil Brides), Brad Wilk (Rage Against The Machine) and many more.
David Phillips, author of the critically acclaimed A Drummer’s Perspective is launching an Indiegogo campaign to raise the funds to be able to publish a new large format coffee table book which celebrates the world of drumming. With David’s rare backstage access to many of the biggest bands in the world, the photos in the book offer a unique view from the stage. The foreword is written by Rush drummer Neil Peart.
The money raised will help to publish this book by paying for the design, production and printing costs. If the project is successfully funded, David expects the book to be delivered in fall 2016. The campaign launches with a video featuring Scott Travis (Judas Priest), John Fred Young (Black Stone Cherry) and Jimmy DeGrasso (Black Star Riders) talking about the author and the book (see below).
With just 60 days to raise the funds, the clock is ticking! To find out further details on the campaign to fund the book, head here.
