Interview: Robert "Sput" Searight of Snarky Puppy

[@sichard.rimmons]

Sput is a phenomenal inspiration. Had the pleasure of seeing him many times in Toronto and is overall a genuinely positive spirit

[@bharathj63]

His snare sound is always on point!

[@larrytate1657]

Never realized how Game Nick is. Knew Robert was but Nick can really lay it down.

[@BBT609]

This is HOT!!! Time to do Larnell Lewis and Cory Henry!

[@sonsauvage]

the joy they had jamming together at the beginning...that's everything man. That the beauty of music right there.

[@TIRABATERA]

Sput you are unique! You are on my top 10 drummers! 👍

[@supercussion6590]

This is exactly what I was looking for! I’ve always wondered about Sput’s drum influences.

[@felmac83]

I always saw the Nick D'Virgilio videos!! Are awesome!!!

[@uryic000]

Love this guy and his music. Snarky Puppy is amazing

[@gickygackers]

Thank you for the interest! Greg Savino, Sweetwater Senior Sales Engineer, [phone] ext. 1357

+SweetwaterSound Nick, EXCELLENT interview & intro + outro jams by you & Sput! 👍 Well, I know this wasn't a product demo video per se, but it would be REALLY GREAT to have a LIST of all of the Drums (and particularly the CYMBALS) used on Both kits!!! I was really digging at least a few cymbals on each kit. ;-) I know that Sput talked about most of the cymbals on his kit, but I'm not quite sure of the Full Names and Exact Sizes???...and I really liked that China on your kit! I guess we're just spoiled by having all the information listed for the actual drum kit demos that you do! For others that are following: Drum Kit talk: 23:32 & 24:16 Sput's Cymbal Setup: 32:35

[@joshuamarchi]

i believe he meant Cory

[@andyham6094]

Interview Matt Garstka of animals as leaders. That would be amazing

[@jayworld4751]

6:15 6:25 Sput recited “For Big Sid” by Max Roach🔥🔥

[@nlabbe]

dat snare

[@fadetoal]

That's was a great interview and the drums rock! Who was the bass player that jammed with Sput and Paul Gilbert in Ft. Wayne?

[@johnpalmer9179]

Roland Guerin

[@fadetoal]

John Palmer thanks!

[@deedrumma1]

@SweetwaterSound , what was the stack Sput was using on the left side of his kit? Was it two of the same splash?

[@dontpanicprod0]

Yes it was

[@davidsuprenant893]

Nick great playing,great interview. Got to ask what China were you using?

[@bbfoto7248]

+David Suprenant x2...on all points! I want to know which China that is on Nick's kit as well. :)

[@nathanielcohen3435]

Is that Sylvester Stallone with sput?

[@CokeAMor]

Ray Romano

[@zackmagruder4742]

How is John form Tampa drums

[@glanemann]

This is a story all about how my life got turned flipped upside down. Oh wait...

[@enragedhippy]

Didn't click on this video to watch a good drummer play with Nick D'virgilio.

[@ACLOCKWORKDRUMMER]

Gadd used a 10 inch in the middle 70s... just saying

[@kierenmoore3236]

"very religious, tho' ..." Says it all ... ;)

[@dtsdigitalden5023]

They're great drummers! Sput led the way. the other drummer ... not such a great interviewer.

[@sonsauvage]

bro how do you not know who Nick D'Virgilio is?

[@felmac83]

Nick D'Virgilio is THE MAN at drums! The Invisible solo album using in each song, different kind of kits is insanity! Check it out in Spock's Beard and Big Big Train! Jeeeezz
