On The Mic: Chris "Whipper" Layton [Stevie Ray Vaughan]

A living blues legend, shuffle king, Rock & Roll Hall of
Famer - Chris Layton joined us to catch up and chat about his
lengthy career working with Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy, Arc
Angels, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Experience Hendrix and more.


We heard from Chris about how hearing Chubby Checker changed his
life, quiting a steady paying gig to play with SRV without having
any plan or safety net, changes in the music industry,
discovering Vater sticks before the Vater Drumsticks brand was
launched in 1989 while preparing for the SRV “In Step” album and
lots more.


Chris uses the Vater Josh Freese H-220 Drumstick model.
