225: Hugh Grundy (The Zombies)

Hugh Grundy's catchy rhythmic hooks and swinging groove helped
The Zombies become on of the greatest and most influential rock
bands of all time. He and Joe discuss: growing up in post-war
England; how he almost wound up spending his life working at a
bank; the fine line between hard work and luck as it pertains to
his career; recording hits like "She's Not There", "Tell Her No",
and the classic Odessey and Oracle album; struggling to find his
identity after the band broke up; working as an A&R man for
CBS; how drumming saved him during the most difficult time in his
life; and the joys of playing with the reunited Zombies, over 50
years after their original run.


Be sure to attend Joe's show with Trap Set alum Matt Cameron,
Mary Timony, Chad Molter and a 12 piece orchestra, at Hollywood
Forever Masonic Lodge on November 21, 2019. TICKETS
