576 – Terence F. Clark: Made in Memphis
Terence F Clark has been playing drums since he was two years old. Combine that with the fact that he grew up in a musical family, and arguably one of the most influential music cities, Memphis Tennessee, he was born to be a musician. You can hear the Memphis influence oozing out of everything he plays but it’s mixed with a sense of modern, genre-pushing freshness and swagger that gives him a sound all his own.
Never settling, Terence is always on a quest for living life to the fullest, allowing life experiences influence his playing, and to dig deep into his sonic relationship with the drums.
Terence F. Clark talks about:
- Lessons he learned from his musician father
- The musical influence that came with being raised in Memphis and how the music scene there has changed
- What he does when he feels he’s hit a plateau with drumming
- The value of stepping away from the drums from time to time to focus on other creative pursuits
